Within the framework of an international project supported by the Creative Europe programme, we would like to invite 12 professionals working in the field of contemporary visual arts to spend quality time in conditions that allow them to develop their practice.

The goal of this call is to support art practices that are often the result of a process of research or that lack institutional or commercial support. These residency opportunities should be seen as a space where artists are being provided with favorable conditions (accommodation, studio, and fees) in unstable times. However, there is no requirement to produce new work during the residency. This call is also aimed at helping artists to connect with new audiences and local art scenes.

We see the emergency residencies as a response to the current situation in Ukraine.

This project has been designed to support artistic communities from all over the country as well as those Ukrainian or previously Ukrainian-based practitioners that have had to relocate to other locations due to the Russian invasion.

GENERAL ELIGIBILITY

Ukrainian artists, curators, critics, mediators, educators, researchers, etc. or people of other nationalities based in Ukraine before the 24th of February 2022.

Professionals with a sustained practice in the field of contemporary visual arts or related areas.

There is no age limit.

• CV specifying the details of an artistic career
• Portfolio (max 10MB) where the candidate’s interests and research topics are clear
• Short description of the current situation and a statement of interest (max 300 words)

The residents will be selected according to their alignment with the research interests of each hosting institution, as well as to their emergency situation.
