Vocations – open space is offering four evenings in the Kuppelhalle of silent green Kulturquartier in 2024, with up to twenty artists performing each evening. Our idea behind te project is to remain radically open to all forms of musical and vocal practices that draw on poetic language.
On 29 May and 8 July, readings and performances with poets, singers, musicians and performers will take place as part of Vocations – open space. Up to two-thirds of all contributions to the open spaces will be chosen from the results of an open call.
The project was conceived by Tomás Cohen, a Chilean poet living in Berlin. He is also the artistic director. Together with Katharina Schultens, Haus für Poesie, he curates the series. Timo Berger is responsible for project coordination, Lena Hintze is in charge of project assistance.
Vocations – open space is an event series organised by Haus für Poesie in cooperation with Junge Akademie, Akademie der Künste, silent green Kulturquartier, the Berliner Künstlerprogramm des DAAD and Kulturstiftung Schloss Wiepersdorf and is funded by Mitteln der Senatsverwaltung für Kultur und Gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt des Landes Berlin im Rahmen der Spartenoffenen Förderung.
