AIR NETWORK: MARCH 2024


THE FARM MARGARET RIVER

MARGARET RIVER, WESTERN AUSTRALIA

DEADLINE: 3/1/2024

GRANT: $7,500 AUD


Located on an ancient, ever-changing piece of land that inspires awe and artistry, The Farm Margaret River offers immersion in the sublime. It is both a working rural property and a home to artist studios — a place to make, explore, examine and restore.


The residency is focused on site-specific projects, created during an eight-week period through research and collaboration while living at The Farm. The Farm offers space and time for artists, as individuals or a group, to consider our place in the natural environment, surrounded by the ancient beauty of South West Western Australia. Any work that arises from the residency or from collaborations should reflect your time spent at The Farm. You will be supported to share your work with the local community.


Our residency program is an opportunity to experience this place and contribute to our ongoing collective learning. As nature informs our artists, our artists inform us. Together we pursue a deeper understanding of our environment and our role within it.



SUREL'S PLACE RESIDENCY PROGRAM

GARDEN CITY, KANSAS

DEADLINE: 3/1/2024

GRANT: $400 + TRAVEL REFUND


The program is open to professional visual, literary, and performance artists:  painters, writers, musicians, architects, filmmakers, and choreographers… any artist who needs a place to focus.  However, because of the property’s limitations and proximity to neighbors, this is not a place that can accommodate loud or terribly messy processes, such as welding or blacksmithing.

We favor artists whose work is technically advanced, unique, attractive (need not be pretty!), and conceptually valuable.  Work that is predominantly conceptual, that must be explained in order to attract a viewer, may not be met with as much enthusiasm by our jurists.  In addition, because we ask our residents to interact with the public through one workshop and one final event, we welcome artists who desire to connect with an audience in these ways.

During their tenure, artists work half of each day on their own work and spend the other half interacting formally with students in art classes. These interactions are collaboratively planned with one of the six visual arts teachers on campus: one Lower School teacher, two Middle School teachers, and three Upper School teachers. Visitors are required to mount an exhibition during their stay and are asked to donate a representative artwork to the school’s visiting artist study collection. In exchange, they are provided with part of a classroom space to call their own to work in. Webb's facilities include a well-equipped digital lab, wood shop, darkroom, kilns, and print presses for our visiting artists to use.


Visiting artists have 24-hour access to their work spaces, as well as access to workout facilities and library privileges. They are housed in an extended stay hotel about two miles from campus, and their lunch is provided on school days. Travel expenses are provided for and visitors receive a $3,900 stipend for their five-week stay.

GRANT: $1,200/M


For over fifty years the Roswell Artist-in-Residence Program has provided talented artists a year-long opportunity to focus on their creative work. The Roswell Residency is not project-based nor engagement driven, providing the artist an opportunity to look inwardly.


The program is solely dedicated to the development of the individual artist. RAiR is perfectly geared to provide unobstructed studio time. Successful residents are self motivated and able to work happily with extended solitude. The nature of the RAiR Fellowship is informal. There are virtually no obligations on the part of the grantees except to respect the facilities and the privacy of the other artists.


The Roswell Museum generally invites fellows to have a solo exhibition of their work toward the end of their stay, however, this opportunity is optional. RAiR’s Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art then offers to purchase a piece from the artist for permanent display.

POP ADRIATICO - RESIDENCY FOR ARTISTIC REASEARCH

VENICE, ITALY

DEADLINE: 3/15/2024


Together with Casa del Cinema di Trieste, Eterotopia, MeLa Media Lab, Gangart and Adriatico Book Club we are pleased to announce this open call for a one-month artistic research residency in Trieste, from 20 May to 21 June 2024, as part of the project P O P  A D R I A T I C O – Porto Osservatorio Partecipato. Applications are open to all visual artists of any nationality, under 36 years of age. The aim of the residency is to offer the artist the space and context to develop a project. This could either be an already well developed idea or a concept starting from scratch. However, it must include the moving image as a means of expression. The project proposal should be in accordance with the themes of P O P  A D R I A T I C O, i.e. the complex dynamics between art, territorial regeneration and citizen participation — approached with a critical eye. Furthermore, through this residency initiative, our objective is to promote the production of works by young artists and to foster future collaborations, as well as to share insights upon the local artistic context and the processes of transformation taking place in the city of Trieste, particularly the Porto Vecchio area.



LA BECQUE

LA TOUR-DE-PELIZ

DEADLINE:3/22/2024

GRANT: 1,500 CHF per month


Participants in our Main Residency Program will be selected globally by a jury of transdisciplinary experts. The program is aimed at both confirmed artists and young talents in the making.


The residency program pays particular attention to projects exploring the interactions between nature and technology, two concepts that are more intertwined than ever and at the heart of contemporary concerns.


A deliberately large playing field, this thematic nexus opens up paths of exploration as varied as they are stimulating - for example: document what constitutes the "anthropocene" and who composes it; use technological tools to document and transcribe natural environments in an artistic approach; explore new intersections where technology becomes an integral part of our natural environment, and vice versa.



GALVESTON ARTIST RESIDENCY

Residents take part in a group exhibition near the end of their stay and have various studio visits throughout their time.
