"The Seventh of the Seven Wonders ": Two of the Seven Wonders of the World are in Turkey and one is in Bodrum; Mausoleum of King Maussollos. The second of the Myndos International Art Workshop series picks "one of the wonders of the world" as its theme. In the workshops the artists and participants will be producing art around the theme and they are going to exhibit these art works at public spaces. We are going to claim back the sculptures of the Mausoleum from the British Museum and relate archeology with contemporary art.

We are looking for 21 more participants (groups), 10 with scholarship and 11 without. Collaboration proposals are also welcome. (Scholarship includes only the tuition.) For application e-mail your CV and project: [email protected]
