The Paseo Project is seeking multimedia installation, performance, and projection art proposals for the 2017 festival. The work should be immersive, participatory, and make a dynamic impact within the Taos Historic District during this evening festival. Preference is given to work that engages with the architecture within the historic downtown. Work can be roving/migratory, performative, site-responsive, culturally-situated, land-based or somehow distort or disrupt scale and soundscape.
This is a juried call for artists and art collectives with an entry fee ($25). Local Taos artists enter for free with the code TAOSlocal. The Paseo Project provides artist stipends and will assist with large equipment needs such as sound systems. A volunteer crew helps with any temporary structures that may need to be built.
