Sky Arts Series

Opera Singers, Classical Musicians, Visual Artists needed for new Sky Arts series.

Could you journey from Athens to the Edinburgh Festival surviving solely on your artistic talent? Could you trade your skills in return for food, accommodation and travel? Could you make the 4000 kilometer journey in just five weeks… and then put on a show / exhibition at the end?

If you are a chutzpah-fueled cultural adventurer who believes in the power of art, we’d love to hear from you.

Illuminations Television is looking for four contributors for a forthcoming Sky Arts series, The Art of Survival.

Two pairs of Artistes and Artists and Musicians will compete against each other – and the winners will be the couple who make the most money from touting their work and skills.

You’ll need available from 30th July to 5th September 2010, over 18 and from the United Kingdom. Males and females wanted. Auditions will take place in London, the week beginning 19th July. Contributors will audition separately, not as teams.

We’ll even pay you for this. In return for going hungry and probably sleeping all over Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Germany and France, we’re delighted to offer a fee of £5000 to each of the four contributors. The winners will claim the equivalent value of the fee again.

To apply, please email: artsurvival@illuminationsmedia.co.uk

with the following before Monday 19th July:

· A CV, detailing performance / exhibition history and qualifications

· A link / profile video, demonstrating their work / performance skills

· A photo

· A phone number
