Open Call – «Sonic Boom»

Gare du Nord's new artist-in-residence format, «Sonic Boom», offers eight artists a platform for artistic development. As part of the program, they will each conceive and present two Cartes Blanches over the course of two years. The selected artists receive a project contribution (see below), professional supervision and coaching on content-related and practical issues and are supported in the genesis of the project.

A central component of «Sonic Boom» is the collective idea. A varied accompanying program with moderated concert visits, discourse formats and improv sessions creates space for exchange, encounters and mutual inspiration between the participants.

«Sonic Boom» will take place from January 2026 to December 2027. The eight artists will be selected by a five-member jury of experts.
