Hello all,

Please find below and attached information about a visual artist residency
in the UK for Sept/Oct 2018.  This opportunity has been passed on to us by
our friends at the Commonwealth Association of Museums, and you are welcome
to share it with any artists in your circle of friends or contacts.

Commonwealth Focus

Dear Colleagues,

I'd be very grateful if you could share the attached Open Call with your
contacts and via your website and social media.

The Art House and ROSL Arts are seeking proposals from visual artists who
would like to take up a two-month residency at the Art House's
purpose-built studios in Wakefield during September and October 2018.

The opportunity is intended to support the artistic and professional
development of two early to mid-career artists, who will have a shared
studio space for the duration of the residency. The callout is open to
artists living and working in commonwealth or former commonwealth countries
(with documentary proof such as a passport or birth certificate) who have
not yet exhibited or studied in the UK.

The residency offers:

·      Fully covered travel costs

·      Fully covered visa costs

·      Living costs covered with a per diem

·      Free studio space in the Art House (the Collaborator Space, pictured
on the right, which is  around 6.7m by 9m)

·      Free accommodation in the Art House flat (pictured on the right)

·      Free access to a fully equipped print studio (pictured on the
right), with screen print, etching and laser cutter

·      The services of a support technician if needed, as part of our
commitment to equality

·      An opportunity to show either a new body of work created during the
residency, or work in progress, in a studio context in the Art House
Collaborator Space and potentially at a UK or International Art Fair.

·      The opportunity to share your practice and residency through a
residency blog, participate in artist’s talks, and if appropriate to run
workshops relating to your practice

·      Coaching and mentoring through 1-2-1 sessions with our team to
support artists to develop their critical understanding of their artistic
practice, marketing, and develop audiences for their work (we will look at
artists’ support needs at the start of the residency and put together a
package of support).

·      A funded visit to ROSL London and opportunity to see the art scene
of the capital over Frieze week

We welcome proposals from artists working in all types of contemporary
visual art practice, including photography, new media, fine art, artists’
moving image, live art, crafts, design, architecture, site-specific,
socially engaged and interdisciplinary practices.

If you are successful then an initial conversation will explore your
aspirations for this programme, and what other support may be needed and
available from the Art House, ROSL Arts and their partners/associates. We
are happy to discuss flexibility if any aspect of the offer needs adapting
to suit your needs.

The Art House and ROSL Arts are committed to developing and supporting
contemporary art practice and critical debate around it. We are accepting
proposals from artists at all stages of their development, and are
particularly interested in artists who want to experiment, innovate and
extend their practice.
