CALL FOR APPLICATIONS - THREE-MONTH RESIDENCIES IN LONDONAfrica Beyond aims to keep African culture in a central position within the modern UK landscape, through its website and other media, lively public events, and now through a series of residencies in London beginning in April 2008.
Gasworks International Residency Programme will play host to three visiting artists from Africa who will be supported in developing a project with InIVA, Photographers' Gallery, or the Southbank Centre.
Established contemporary visual artists from Africa, who have not spent extensive time working in Europe, are invited to apply for this programme. Each of the three residencies will have a specific aim and focus:
At the Southbank Centre, the residency will focus on the display of new and existing work, showcase his/her practice on a major public platform. The residency with the Photographers' Gallery will focus on an artist's contribution to the community and the role of education in artistic practice. At InIVA, the artist will have the opportunity to develop and contribute within a leading space for research and discussion of contemporary art. All artists will be provided with a studio and support at Gasworks.
Applications must state which residency/institution the artist would like to become involved in.
