Dimanche Rouge is currently considering experimental performance proposals for its tri-national festival to be held in Estonia, Finland and France from October 17th till the 20th, 2013.
The festival will present a curated program featuring the latest work by artists from all continents. This will be an excellent opportunity for artists to show their work to an international audience and interact with colleagues from a variety of origins.
Dimanche Rouge Estonia-Finland-France will be hosted at several venues including national art museums and art centers such as EMMA, the largest museum in Finland, and Kultuurikatel, a unique cultural center and former power plant where Tarkovsky filmed Stalker. A selection of performances will also be presented in France at Le Generateur during the performance art festival Frasq.
The programs will be cross-live-streamed and publicly screened at several venues worldwide to further promote the artists’ work internationally.
The festival will also offer roundtable discussions, workshops and talks for the artists and general public.
About Dimanche Rouge
A Paris-based project that has rapidly grown into one of the largest monthly experimental performance festivals in Europe, presenting the work of over 600 artists from 62 countries in Paris and abroad in less than two years.
Submission Guidelines
Performances proposed must be experimental and contain a live element.
Work we program,
- multimedia, dance, performance art, video, sound, interventions, street art, and spoken word
- performances from other disciplines usually not included in art festivals such as hairstyle, cuisine, tattoo, massage, sports, the sciences and any other performative acts done in an experimental way
- installations
- artwork without a live component provided that the artist produces a piece live. For instance, painters could show their work if they produce a painting during the festival.

You were one of the co-founders of Ars Electronica in 1979. What were your thoughts as you were conceiving this first festival dedicated to electronic arts?
We weren’t thinking 30 years ahead, but we thought the scene of art, technology and society -- the subtitle of Ars Electronica -- would consist of the future. This was from the very beginning. The name didn't change, and the subtitle didn't change. My boss, Hannes Leopoldseder, whom I think is the real founder...

It would be misleading to try to describe Don Foresta’s career in so little space, as the itinerary of this American diplomat, who has become one of the major artist researchers of the international art world, is a relentless series of connections throughout the world, the arts and the sciences.
Indeed, it would be misleading to tell the story of Don, this young man who arrived in Paris in June 1971 to assume the position of cultural advisor at the American Embassy. Fortunately for us, ...

How to teach the art and science correlation at the Sorbonne and prepare an exhibition at the far ends of Ural and Siberia?
