Creative Time

Open Call: Be a 2012 Summit Presenter!

August 8th, 2012

For the 2012 Creative Time Summit, we are seeking a cultural producer whose work tackles issues of wealth inequity and uses creative strategies to mobilize social change. The Summit will be held on October 12 and 13, 2012 at New York University’s Skirball Center for the Performing Arts.

This year’s Summit, titled Confronting Inequity, brings together artists, curators, organizers, and thinkers who have contributed to changing public discourse and political debates surrounding global financial inequality.

We are seeking an inspirational 8-minute talk about a single project that speaks to the issue of wealth inequity, highlights the political implications of your practice, and showcases what your work has done to discuss, expose, or challenge a specific issue. We are looking for compelling projects and sincerity, rather than a CV or a laundry list of professional achievements. If selected to present at the conference, Creative Time will fly you to New York City and cover all accommodations from October 11th–14th.

Join Slavoj Žižek, Suzanne Lacy, Laura Poitras, Pablo Helguera, Invisible Borders, and Malkia Cyril, among others, as a presenter at Creative Time’s 2012 Summit. It’s simple to apply!
