"TRY ANGLE" is a high end project for artistic research, aimed to the sustained growth of the artists involved. It's an international cross-disciplinary project, focused on the research and set-up of new collaborative practices among emerging and established European artists. Its aimed to reflect and reinvent the very idea of "art making" in our times, fostering new forms of collaboration, due to the unsual set-up in which it develops. It's a hands-on project, where artists learn by doing, devising new strategies as they go along the creative tryouts. We believe that artists learn with each other through out their artistic careers. Therefore, during the two weeks of each lab, we aim to isolate them from their market-competetive environment into a fruitful collaborative one. The project is co-organized by three cultural organizations in France, Germany and Portugal and it will be developed with the collaboration of associated partners in Scandinavia, Turkey and the Balkan Region . The following activities are planned : 3 sets of 2 week research laboratories that will take place in France, Germany and Portugal on 2012, bringing together around 100 artists and cultural workers from all over Europe, the East Mediterranean and the Balkan region. From these research labs, 3 artistic projects will be selected to be co-produced by the 3 project co-organizers and be presented in a small festival co-organized by the project partners, within the framework, and in partnership with Marseille-Provence 2013 - European Capital of Culture. Together with the final showing, a closing conference about the project will also be held. It also includes an innovative website that will use the most advanced social software platforms and internet rich multimedia applications, to provide an extensive and intensive communication and documentation tool, both for professionals and audience, generating a lot of knowledge outside the projects' boundaries.
