Ivan Juritz Prize for Creative Experiment
The Ivan Juritz Prize was established in 2014 to reward art that seeks to break boundaries and 'make it new'. Postgraduate students throughout Europe either from traditional academic disciplines or from creative courses submit texts, films, musical compositions, virtual documentation of artwork, excerpts of moving image work and proposals for installation and performance. Entrants are encouraged o play with form to make us think, feel and question.
The prize is a collaboration between the Centre for Modern Literature and Culture and Cove Park, Scotland's International Artist Residency Centre. Winners in three categories (text, image, sound) receive £1000 and pend two weeks at Cove Park, engaging in a residency and showcase. The three winners collaborate on a new work of art which will then be performed. All shortlisted works are also given a public performance at the prize-giving and are written up in the journal Textual Practice.
Recent judges have included Lisa Appignanesi, Rachel Cusk, Dexter Dalwood, Jeremy Harding, Deborah Levy, Richard Scott, Arlene Sierra, Gillian Wearing, Ryan Wigglesworth.
