August 8th - 25th

In a departure from its usual structure, BIAW 2010 will focus on organising a 2 day extravaganza open to the public on 21st and 22nd August 2010.

We present Supernormal - a one-off, non-commercial festival investigating the power of arts practice to reshape and reinvigorate the public sphere through collective action.

16 artists will be selected to work with the co-ordinators over 14 days to create a brilliant fusion of art, music, film, conversation and fun, playing host to a hand-picked line-up of exciting artists and performers.

We are calling for artists who, conscious of the social, economic, environmental and cultural challenges we face in the 21st century, are open to working together in a sustainable and inclusive way to explore arts practice in the context of the public realm.

Deadline for receipt of applications: Monday 3rd May 2010
