Timing

The Call for Projects for participants is organized three times a year. The evaluation and selection of APT participants takes place under the supervision of the artistic coordinator and the Artistic Board: a small group of engaged theoreticians and artists who will be involved in the training from a slight distance.

Next Deadline : 1st of January 2010


Selection criteria

Once the deadline for the Call for Projects is up, a selection will be made on the basis of the following criteria:
  1. the added research value of the project for the participant's trajectory;
  2. the originality of the project;
  3. the potential of the project to contribute interesting material for performative theory or practice;
  4. the probability that the research will bring about a creative dynamics in the group;
  5. the potential impact on a wider group of stakeholders (audience, academic researchers, other artists, etc.).

The artistic-pedagogical coordinator, the curators and the Artistic Board will make the selection collectively. The Artistic Board is a group of theoreticians and practitioners committed to following the running of APT closely and to function as a critical sounding board. The members might chose to act as occasional mentors to the participants and be the privileged witnesses to the course developed by APT.


Tuition fee

The tuition fee for a cycle of one year, consisting out of three successive blocks, is €1000.
