Rhythm Machine is a nightclub which is founded on the idea that a city’s music & contemporary art scenes should be intrinsically linked. From 2015-16, it was the sole resident nightclub at Edinburgh arts venue Summerhall & it is now based between Studio 24 in Edinburgh & The Art School in Glasgow.<\/p>\n
We are currently looking for artists for our Sep-Dec 2017 & Jan-June 2018 programme.<\/p>\n
Brief:<\/p>\n
Every month we commission an artist or collective to create or curate work to be presented on the night of the event, between 11pm and 3am.<\/p>\n
The artists are given a dedicated space at the event in which to present their work – separate from both the bar & the dancefloor. However the option of integrating the artwork into either of the other two spaces is left open.<\/p>\n
The work can be in any medium, but artists are encouraged to consider the context in which it will be presented – performance, video & installation work have proven to be the most successful mediums historically.<\/p>\n
The work can be the artist’s own (either newly created or previously presented) but the artist is also free to curate the work of other artists of their choice.<\/p>\n
The artist can view the residency as a test bed to develop ideas – with the potential for successful applicants to occupy the residency several times – whether to develop a single idea or to further explore the environment’s possibilities.<\/p>\n
Statement to Applicants:<\/p>\n
Over the past 18 months we have commissioned both professional artists & art students to create & curate work for the event. Students have, in general, been in their final year & have experience organising and presenting work in their chosen medium outside of their college curriculum. However – all applicants who are dedicated to their practice will be considered.<\/p>\n
Artists will receive a fee of \u00a3100\/\u00a3200 (dependent on venue) & an additional \u00a3100 to cover expenses.<\/p>\n
