The Asia New Zealand Foundation is calling for applications for its six artist-in-residence programmes for 2012.
The rapid economic and social changes taking place in Asia have created some dynamic emerging contemporary art scenes. The region is being visited by an increasing number of international artists who want to engage in these changes first-hand.
Successful candidates will live and work in Asia at one of six prestigious residency organisations for two to three months, and will have the opportunity to meet and work with other international artists and curators.
The six programmes are:
- 1Shanthi Road, Bangalore, India
- Changdong Art Studio, Seoul, Korea
- Institute for Provocation, Beijing, China
- NS43 exchange, S-AiR Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan
- Taipei Artist Village, Taiwan
- Three Shadows, Beijing, China
Preference will be given to projects with potential for artistic collaboration and exhibition outcomes. Successful candidates will be required to provide progress reports of their residency to Asia:NZ, and to seek opportunities to share their experience on their return to New Zealand. This could mean an exhibition, a series of presentations or artists talks, or publication of articles.
For more information and how to apply visit the Asia NZ Foundation website.
