Call for applications for the 12th international art competition ‘bewegter wind’ 2025
The triad of wind, art and landscape have been inspiring visitors for years. This years theme ‘...fresh’ promises new approaches from creatives from all over the world in these challenging times.
The competition entries will be exhibited from 17th - 31st August at unique scenic locations in Zierenberg, Northern Hesse. Wind objects, installations, performances and videos invite visitors to discover the exhibits and the landscape. Our concept encourages a lively exchange between different visitor groups. The community and visitors are involved.
The deadline for the ideas competition is 5 May 2025.
The award money amounts to €7,000.
The competition text gives some associations to the topic:
…fresh
Fresh breeze. Fresh idea. Fresh perspective.
The wind can blow away the fog and clouds and turn lows into highs.
In meteorological terms, a fresh breeze is a wind speed.
Sometimes thoughts, opinions, behaviour and even politics can appear dull, rigid and without prospects.
A fresh breeze is needed to blow through things.
The changing power of the wind directs fresh views onto the diversity of possibilities. Revitalising and contouring, the wind can make visible what was previously obscured.
The innovative power of the wind is astonishing.
This blowing force that captures, threatens and encourages.
Can art be this fresh breeze?
We are looking for designs that illustrate or enhance ‘...fresh’.
The competition and exhibition are organised by ‘bewegter wind’ e.V.- Association for the Promotion of Wind Art and Intercultural Communication, which organises the wind art festival together with partners and helpers. www.bewegter-wind.de
