Međunarodni konkurs Trieste Contemporanea za dizajn – Harbour For Cultures

Trieste Contemporanea u Trstu objavio je 13. Međunarodni nagradni konkurs za dizajn kako bi predstavio najoriginalnija dizajnerska rešenja autora iz 24 zemlje Centralnoistočne Evrope na temu “Harbour For Cultures". Tema je inspirisana stvarnom situacijom u vezi sa potrebom pronalaženja načina za obnovu i ponovno korišćenje stare luke u Trstu (Porto Vekio), koja je decenijama van upotrebe.

Rok za prijavljivanje je 15. jul 2018.

Učešće na konkursu je besplatno, a glavna nagrada (Gillo Dorfles) iznosu 4.000 evra.

Tekst konkursa (na engleskom):

art. 1 – PREMISES

The 2018 edition of the contest will be based on the ongoing two-year project Harbour for Cultures (from now on: H/C). H/C draws inspiration from the real case history of how to convert and reuse the area of the Porto Vecchio (old port) of Trieste, which has remained unused and in a state of decay for decades. H/C is an incubator where creative minds of art curators, artists and thinkers from other disciplines re-interpret the usual functions of a port in view of shaping an image of a “new port”, with its interim state between arriving, belonging and leaving, where people freely exchange their own cultures (instead of goods), while assuring their values (a new idea of insurance…) so that new profits (benefits of art and culture) are earned by the many.

The H/C process is now extended by this call to designers, who, while enrolling to the 2018 contest, will challenge this utopia: a vision beyond geographical and mental borders to create a (near) future shared society.

see the H/C questions which were the starting point for the H/C project, but could also be an inspiration for the contest’s participants.

art. 2 – 2018’S MAIN THEME

WHICH OBJECT WOULD YOU IMAGINE TO FIND IN / BRING TO / TAKE FROM A HARBOUR FOR CULTURES?
Participants are asked to conceive an original and innovative item of contemporary design that should be useful in a possible harbour for cultures.

art. 3 – TRIESTE AWARD THEME
The dedicated theme

The Trieste Award challenge is to invent, in terms of social design or relational design, something pertinent to a harbour for culture – the 2018 subject of the competition – but peculiar for the area given of Porto Vecchio, which, with its specific characteristics of a once successful trading port, is now an industrial heritage site to be rethought for the modern life of the whole city.

The Trieste theme asks participants to develop design projects based on human relations needs and their social contexts. The goal will be to CREATE WAYS TO INTERACT WITH THE EXISTING REAL MAP OF TRIESTE’S PORTO VECCHIO BY INVENTING AN ORIGINAL AND INNOVATIVE OBJECT, OR A TEMPORARY STRUCTURE that has to be made from sustainable materials. The proposed project has to be led by one or more of the following principles: relational, interactive, inclusive, being of collective interest, able of gathering people, able to produce engagement.

art. 4 – REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPATION

The competition is open to all designers born in CEI member states (Albania, Austria, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy, Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Serbia, Slovenia and Ukraine) in compliance with its purposes.
