Open Call Hamish Fulton Research Group

Deadline: 20 March 2023 / Sign up the following link!

In May and June 2023, Galerie Block C and ARTisBOOK will exhibit the work of “walking artist” Hamish Fulton in Groningen. As the Hamish Fulton Research Group, we will be taking the work made by Fulton as a starting point to explore the poetry and politics of walking.

The group was inspired by the wish to think together with and about Fulton’s work. Our programme will take a diverse form, seeking to integrate different perspectives – from art and nature to climate justice, protest marches and intentional wandering – to delve collectively into the theory and practice of walking. 

The first three sessions will be facilitated by the organizers. After that, we will develop the programme together as a group. Anyone who wants to collectively explore both walking and Fulton’s work in a creative, open context is welcome to apply! 

Practical details

• First three meetings will be on March 23, April 6th and 20th April from 19.00-21.00. Location to be confirmed within the city center. 
• The group aims to meet 4-5 times before the exhibition opens on May 20, and 3 times during the exhibition 
• The programme is free of charge. 
• No previous experience of particular knowledge is required.
