VORBRENNER is a contemporary art platform that promotes process-oriented work across all disciplines and genres. It offers short-term opportunities for collaboration for both collectives and individual artists in search of new insights and contemporary forms of expression that engage with an interdisciplinary concept of art and science. The focus is on a movement that is curious, experimental, researching, and developing, that welcomes the unfinished, the paradoxical, and the fragmentary. For exploratory trials
of such nature, VORBRENNER provides the BRUX premises along with infrastructure and financial resources.
VORBRENNER provides the facilities of BRUX along with infrastructure and financial support for such explorations.Through the annual OPEN CALL, contemporary art projects can be submitted. The VORBRENNER board decides on the selection of projects. Selected projects receive funding in the form of money, space, technology, PR, and consultation. The formats can be performative, installative, or participatory, with no specific content requirements. The quote may be understood as an associative impulse. Together, the VORBRENNER projects form an annual program implemented in the months of April, June, September, and October. During this period, the spaces of BRUX are available for project work and events.
