Brown Grad I Mentioned in Class - Orly Genger

Here is today's NY Times article about her. It mentions her large-scale public projects and even has a link to her jewelry.

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/05/arts/design/orly-genger-in-madison-square-park.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&adxnnl=1&smid=fb-share&adxnnlx=1367857840-HIu8RLBTpTQXBN456oIx2Q

Mine was on New Orleans art scenes.  There are several art areas all with different vibes.  Magazine st and the Warehouse district are the established art areas,,,the french wuarter is teeming with tourist art, the bywater is an up and coming arty area where the poor young artists are moving.

(name switch in a few days, mentally slipped on that aspect! it's old, but i added tons of new art, a new logo, a news section, i reorganized it to be neater, and now i just need to upload my 2013 resume!)

my presentation was on AS220.

Nina -- site + presentation link

Hey all!

My site should be up and running at ninaruelle.com very soon, but until then it's at ninaruelle.squarespace.com! I've got some of your links, and will add the rest when everyone's posted their websites.

And due to a painful harddrive crash about a month ago, I no longer have my presentation on kai franz (although in retrospect, maybe it's still on the computer in the classroom?) -- but you can find out all about him and his work at kaifranz.de

domain

www.annamuselmann.com

Hey guys,

I called iPage tech support last night, and apparently they issued me the wrong FTP server address, so it's going to be an additional 36 hours before my website is up and running. So frustrating. I know you guys can't *wait* to see it (haha), but it should be ready to go in no time (well, in a little time).

Thanks for your understanding.

See you all soon!

Hey-o! It's at www.giannabadiali.com

Website/Jonathan Weinberg

Hi! Here is my website: www.toddstong.com
And here is the website to Jonathan Weinberg, the artist and art historian I interviewed: http://www.jonathanweinberg.com/

Here's some basic background info I'm going to share at 12:45 if anyone checks this out before then. He's an incredibly interesting guy -- this is the "boring stuff."

Jonathan Weinberg is a painter and art historian. Born in 1957, he received a BA in art history from Yale and a PhD in the same subject from Harvard.  He is the author of several books including Male Desire: the Homoerotic in American Art, and Ambition and Love in Modern American Art. He has taught at Bennington College, Cooper Union, and Yale University and he is currently a Visiting Professor of Art History at Brown and a Visiting Critic in the Graduate Print Department at the Rhode Island School of Design. He is a John Simon Guggenheim fellow, a Mills fellow at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a Sterling fellow at the Clark Art Institute, and scholar and artist-in-residence at the Getty. A mid-career retrospective of Weinberg’s paintings, curated by Jonathan Katz, was shown at the Leslie Lohman Gay Art Foundation in New York in March 2010.

Art in Chicago - Presentation Info

I did my presentation on an artist/region on Chicago and I spoke with an artist/writer Robin Dluzen. I found some interesting initiatives starting in Chicago that are posted below. Food for thought.

three walls
Community Supported Art

 This program offers collectors packages of work made by local artists like a market share program. For example, for a $400 dollar share, the collector would receive a full place setting (plate, cups, etc.) handmade by Chicago artists.

Hyde Park Art Center
Not Just Another Pretty Face

This program connects local artists with local collectors. Each collector is matched with an artists who creates a "portrait", ranging from a very traditional to very abstract representations. Very interesting initiative, has put around $200,000 in the hands of 70 local artists.

http://chicagoartmagazine.com/
This is the publication where artist Robin Dluzen became the editor-in-chief. It was built out of a need for providing press and coverage to local artists, but unfortunately closed in 2012. Though it's not publishing anymore, it has great advice for starting an internet magazine.

Diane Zhou- Website

Here's my website: http://dianezhou.com

I made this at the beginning of last year but in the last few days I've changed some of the organization and I'm planning to reorganize the "art" section from traditional vs. digital to moving vs. still, and I'm planning to add a news section somewhere also-- not yet sure if I want to interrupt the weird stillness of the homepage with something that updates regularly, so I might just make another creature-button, add it to the homepage, and have it link to news/updates.

Alessandra's Website

Hey guys,
For now my website is https://maria-castillo-zljp.squarespace.com/ , but I just registered my domain name so within 48 hours it should be mariaalessandracastillo.com ! I'll link to all of your pages soon.

MAX WARSH // REGINA REX

Hey guys. Not sure if any of you remember my artist presentation, but I interviewed Max Warsh, who is an artist currently working in Brooklyn. He is also one of thirteen members/collaborators/artists in the Regina Rex artist collective/gallery.

I thought I'd share both his personal website and the Regina Rex website, in case any of you are interested in checking them out:

Fellowship at U. of Michigan

Here is the program I was talking about in class. It's a post-graduate degree (post-PhD or MFA) that pays you for 3 years to do your work and research. It MUST be an interdisciplinary practice.
http://societyoffellows.umich.edu/

The artist who currently has one is Lily Cox-Richard. She has a lot of advice on how to apply.

Things to apply for... think about... etc.

The Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation - Grant

"The Foundation provides financial assistance to artists who work in a representational style of painting, drawing, sculpting or printmaking, are in the early or developmental stage of their career, and demonstrate a commitment to making art a lifetime career."

This is a Canadian foundation that awards $15,000 to $18,000 (Canadian dollars) to an artist fitting the above description. One cool part about this award is that it can be used towards other programs (i.e.; paying for your MFA at RISD, or that studio space in Berkeley (see below), etc.).

KALA Art Institute - Residency in the Bay Area

I am interested in this place because they offer a lot of access to printmaking equipment (they do other things too, just no straight-up painting). They offer a number of "residencies" that are actually just low cost studio space. However there is also a fellowship which allows you 6 months of free access to their equipment, to complete a print project culminating in a show at their gallery. Also with the fellowship comes an undisclosed cash stipend.

The RISD MFA program 

RISD requires transcript submission, portfolio submission of 10 to 20 examples of your work (this varies depending on the specific program), statement of purpose (500-750 words), letters of recommendation (three of these).

AS220 Galleries - exhibition

A bunch of people in this class may have done this already, but I have never tried to show work at AS220. I am also trying to find juried shows to submit to, so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

I'm going to keep looking into some exhibition-type things too. I'll let you guys know what I find. I've found a couple cool residencies, but they require you to be more established as an artist I think. One in Vancouver, called Malaspina and one through the Golden Foundation (like Golden paint).

Potential Grants/Residencies

This is something we heard about during our time at Eyebeam.  This is definitely something I would look forward to applying to in the future (especially because the photographers' house apparently has a sauna): http://www.macdowellcolony.org/apply-appguidelines.html
Though they don't make it clear as to how one can actually apply, this looks promising: http://thebaumfoundation.org/highlights/baum-award-photography

These two don't require submission fees and are relatively easy to apply for:
http://forwardthinkingmuseum.com/contest/photography.php
http://imagery.gettyimages.com/getty_images_grants/overview.aspx (check under emerging talent award)

Post-Brown, this would be a great way to continue photo education: http://www.alexiafoundation.org/grants/student_rules

I've been looking a lot at ICP as a potential grad school.  If I end up there, this would be a great opportunity: http://www.icpftstudentops.blogspot.com/

SPACE is one of the largest arts organizations in the UK and has a lot of great offerings for residencies: http://www.spacestudios.org.uk/space

Finally, here's a residency in Mae Taeng, Chiang Mai in Thailand.  Although their facilities don't support the kind of work I'd like to do, it's nevertheless a cool opportunity to check out if you fit into what they're looking for: http://elixir-community.com/

I will be applying to the latter two as the first two are unavailable at this time.

Exhibition Opportunities

Except for the first one, I'm not sure how suitable these are for people still in school so I went for ones that specifically say 18+ or emerging or unrepresented artists.

The (e)merge art fair connects emerging-art professionals from around the globe with collectors, curators and cultural decision makers in Washington, DC. Artists wishing to apply must be currently unrepresented by a gallery and may not have had SOLO exhibition at a major museum or Kunsthalle. Artists will be provided with exhibition space free of charge in public areas throughout the Capitol Skyline. All submissions will be reviewed by an international vetting committee. Whereas work in all media will be carefully considered, projects involving experimental works in non-traditional formats are especially encouraged. The 2013 fair will take place Oct 3-6 at the Capitol Skyline Hotel in Washington, DC.

What I'm thinking about...

Opportunities/goals!

http://theartstudentsleague.org/ResidencyVytlacilCampus.aspx -- very interested in this residency in Sparkill, NY. Just outside the city, one to two months, rolling admission

http://brown.edu/academics/creative-arts-council/grants/student-grant-program -- probably something most of you already know, going to apply next year.

http://us.fulbrightonline.org/application-tips/arts -- I'm thinking more and more about going to a classical atelier after Brown, hopefully with some kind of grant or scholarship. Fulbrights are sometimes given to fine arts majors, but of course I'll need to come up with an idea to make the study something more than just improving technically. Some sort of personal project that also engages with the community and works in the context of contemporary art, not just traditional. 

http://www.artrenewal.org/pages/ateliers.php -- a list of vetted programs. I am most interested in Italy http://ateliercanova.com/, http://www.angelartschool.com/, http://www.florenceacademyofart.com/, and http://www.charlescecilstudios.com/index.html, but London would work as well http://lavenderhillstudios.com/ and http://drawpaintsculpt.com/full-courses/first-year/. Unfortunately couldn't find one for Paris… but I don't mind learning Italian or sticking with English.

http://www.artrenewal.org/pages/scholarshipapplication.php -- another scholarship to apply for in the case that I try for the atelier.

And I'll be applying to honors as well! Also, some possible MFA programs I'm thinking about include Penn State, RISD, Yale, UCLA

My Next Moves App Choices

1. Brooklyn Museum Education Internship Program (http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/education/adults/intern-educators.php) Specifically the 'School and Youth and Family' branch (http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/about/careers/career_description.php?id=280)

It's a 10-month program where you design and teach programs to kids and families who visit the museum  itself but also attend professional development workshops. I know several people who've done this. I think Eleanor Whitney did this, actually.

2. School of Visual Arts MFA in Illustration as Visual Essay (http://www.sva.edu/graduate/mfa-illustration-as-visual-essay) (http://www.sva.edu/attend-sva/graduate/department-requirements)

So many great people have come through this illustration grad program, or currently teach there.

3. The Center for Cartoon Studies MFA (http://www.teachingcomics.org/) (view admissions sections)

Two-year MFA program for people who want to make comics!

4. NYU Masters in Visual Arts Administration (http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/art/admin/) (http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/art/admin/apply)

The former executive director at the teen studio I work at also went to this program, but I've generally heard great stuff about it around. The option to be a part time student also appeals to me.

5. MICA (Maryland Institute College of Art) MFA in Community Arts (http://www.mica.edu/Programs_of_Study/Graduate_Programs/Community_Arts_(MFA).html)

Classes are half studio, half organizing-activism-awesomeness. "The MFA in Community Arts (MFACA) prepares artists to use their artmaking as a means of civic, youth, and community development, or to teach at the post-secondary level. The curriculum gives students a grounding in theory and practice, while real-world experience integrates independent artmaking with community-based projects. Students discover firsthand how artists and their work help communities articulate their own  history, culture, and needs--and how that community in turn inspires the artists' own creative expression."

6. MICA Post-baccalaureate Certificate in Fine Art (http://www.mica.edu/Programs_of_Study/Post-Baccalaureate_Certificate_in_Fine_Art.html) (http://www.mica.edu/Admission_and_Financial_Aid/Graduate_Admission_and_Financial_Aid/Admission_Procedures_and_Deadlines_for_All_Applicants.html)

Because I don't have a regular practice, I may need time to build towards full time art maker status. It's just one year, which is such a tiny committment relative to the rest of my working life. It might also give me the portfolio to apply to a more intense program like the NYU MFA in Illustration.

7. Penland School of Crafts Artist Residencies (http://penland.org/programs/resident_artists.html)

8. AS220 Show or artist-in-residence??

9. SCAC Grant

10. Brooklyn Zine Fest 

11. Hillel Gallery Solo Show??

Diane Zhou- 5 residencies/grants

1) Tokyo Wonder Site Aoyama Creator-in-Residence: http://en.air-j.info/result/center_13113_02
     Pretty open to almost anyone for any type of work, takes about 100 artists per year

2) Tenement Museum (NYC) Digital Artists in Residence Program: http://www.tenement.org/darp.html
     I'm not sure if this is a real residence or just one in name, but they sponsor interactive websites that deal with the immigrant experience which is pretty cool. There's not much information on there.

3) Harvestworks Residency (NYC): http://www.harvestworks.org/new-works-residency/
     "The Harvestworks New Works is a national program that offers American artists (US-residents) commissions of up to $5000 to make a new work in our Technology, Engineering, Art and Music (TEAM) lab. Each artist receives up to a $2000 artist fee with the balance of the award used for the TEAM lab activities. The artist works with a team comprised of Harvestworks’ Project Manager and consultants, technicians or instructors."

4) Eyebeam Residencies/Fellowships (NYC): http://eyebeam.org/creative-residencies-faq
    Residencies: $5000 in three installments, project-based
    Fellowship: $30,000 over 11 months, supports overall practice
   "The 5 month residency is a period of concentration and immersion in artistic investigation, daring research or production of visionary, experimental applications and projects."

5) Djerassi Resident Artsits Program (Santa Barbara CA): http://www.artistcommunities.org/residencies/djerassi-resident-artists-program
    Supports people who do visual arts and media arts (and a bunch of other types).
    1 month long, gives you a place to live. Seems really open


I'm not sure if all of these are open to students though. I chose them because they didn't say "Students not eligible" but I think they might have that stipulation there by default and just not stated it.

Websites + Cargo Collective

Here are some of my links from last week -- I mention the parts I like about the websites next to the links.

http://www.zhaomingwu.com/ -- simpleview is a great tool imho

http://www.pascalpolar.be/site/artisteview.php?nom_de_tri=Ricard%20Aymar -- like the pop-up idea for viewing pieces individually; allows viewer to make a specific selection of work they appreciate.

http://cargocollective.com/francisvallejo/FIGURE -- clean, sleek aesthetic; something very nice about just scrolling down through artworks

http://jacobvanloon.com/ -- again, clean aesthetic; nice that the "next" button doesn't jump around the way it does on a lot of artists websites; can easily keep clicking and viewing continuously without annoying misclicks

http://cargocollective.com/ -- community-oriented, get templates for work, have to apply (though Kah can send some invitations)

Panel on succeeding as an artist.  We talk about all these points in class!

Opportunities, PA centric...

http://sharpeartfdn.qwestoffice.net/freestudiospace.htm

This is something I might consider after graduating -- free studio space in New York. I did their summer program for high school students and it was pretty life-changing (http://sharpeartfdn.qwestoffice.net/summer1.htm). Jenky website but legit organization.

Totally a reach thing for something later in life -- I'm from the Philadelphia area, so it's something I might consider later on if I end up there.

A gallery in New York with a ton of artists I really love, especially Fred Tomaselli (who happens to be a juror in the Marie Walsh Sharpe free space program). They have a 3-6 month internship.

Another PA thing -- a bunch of different grants/programs, guidelines and program information included. Some are probably reaches, but there are a lot of cool options.

Seems like a pretty general grant organization -- still very selective, but nothing's impossible! Another good option for the future.

residencies, etc.

the watermill center: a laboratory for performance

The Watermill Center is an interdisciplinary laboratory for the arts and humanities completed in 2006 on the Long Island, NY site of a former Western Union communication research facility. Founded by theatre and visual artist Robert Wilson as a place for young and emerging artists to work, learn, create, and grow with each other, Watermill integrates performing arts practice with resources from the humanities, research from the sciences, and inspiration from the visual arts. Watermill is unique within the global landscape of experimental theatrical performance, and regularly convenes the brightest minds from all disciplines to do, in Wilson’s words, "what no one else is doing."

regina rex

Regina Rex is an artist-run exhibition space located on the border of Ridgewood, Queens and Bushwick, Brooklyn. Through an inclusive collaborative structure, Regina Rex aims to build an exhibition context that is rigorous, cogent and driven by our engagement and dialogue with other artists. There are currently thirteen participating curators at Regina Rex (including Theresa Ganz!). 


signal


SIGNAL is dedicated to staging ambitious, often large-scale exhibitions and installations by young artists. The gallery was founded in 2012 by Alexander Johns, Kyle Clairmont Jacques and Mckenzie Ursch. The gallery was established, has slowly been renovated, and operates thanks to the kindness and good graces of many friends. These guys are way cool. I helped them start the gallery this summer, and it's a really awesome space.


domaine de boisbuchet

So essentially at the Chateau de Boisbuchet is this incredible 16th century castle in the French countryside that hosts workshops and design courses for young artists. The workshops are over the summer, and tend to be more designy than fine-arty. BUT there are still some really cool looking options. Option to participate in workshops or to work there for the program (what I'm trying to do). Check it outtttt.


saatchi gallery grants + prizes

So we noticed/mentioned in our last class that many artists have shown in, or are somehow connected to, The Saatchi Gallery. Rather than post one grant/prize they advertise, I thought I'd just include them all.

Grants/Residencies/Publications

Here are some things I came across specifically for photography, but some of the residencies apply to all fine artists:

Emerging Photographer Grant

http://www.burnmagazine.org/emerging-photographer-grant/

“The Emerging Photographer Grant is designed to support continuation of a photographer’s personal project. This body of work may be of either journalistic mission or purely personal artistic imperatives. The primary intent is to support emerging photographers who will become the icons of tomorrow.”

In 2012, the fund awarded $10,000 to one finalist, and two runners-up received $2,500.  Over 1,000 entries are submitted in a slew of photographic styles, though the most consistent theme is the photojournalistic.

Manuel Rivera-Ortiz Foundation for International Photography, Grant

http://mrofoundation.org/?page/77111/home

“The Manuel Rivera-Ortiz Foundation for Documentary Photography and Film will award a US $5,000 grant to the winning documentary/reportage project proposal and supporting image portfolio. The "Top 12" shortlisted portfolios will be exhibited during Les Rencontres d'Arles at our sister space Galerie Huit, located in the heart of Arles. The winning project must be completed within the following calendar year of receiving the grant. Our grant is open to both professional and up and coming, non-professional photographers in all countries. Participants must be committed to the field of reportage and documentary photography.”

Getty Images Emerging Talent Award

http://imagery.gettyimages.com/getty_images_grants/Emerging.html

“Getty Images proudly supports photographers, filmmakers and communications professionals who use their talents to promote positive change in our world. The Getty Images Creative Grants help these creative visionaries as they work together to create new, compelling imagery or video for a nonprofit organization of their choice.”

“To complement our Grants for Editorial Photography program, we offer an opportunity for young photographers to receive mentoring and support through our Emerging Talent Award. Applicants must be under the age of 25 or currently enrolled in a full time photojournalism program (please include a signed letter from a faculty member, confirming this). Winners are added to the Emerging Talent roster on Reportage by Getty Images.”

Burn Magazine

http://www.burnmagazine.org/

“Burn is an evolving journal for emerging photographers. Burn was launched as an online magazine/journal on December 21, 2008, and is curated by Magnum photographer David Alan Harvey. We publish new stories or singles at least two times per week.”
Burn Magazine functions not only as a place of publication, but also as a site for mentoring and discussion amongst up and coming photojournalists and documentary photographers.

Woodstock A-I-R Photography Residency

http://www.cpw.org/AIR/main/main.html

“WOODSTOCK A-I-R  is a workspace residency program designed to support artists of color working in the photographic arts who reside in the United States with access to time, facilities, financial, critical, and technical support. This activity is created with an emphasis on supporting artists working in the photographic arts who are at the brink of their careers and promising talent. All of us lead very busy lives – the drive for this program is to free the artist - from the busy routines and demands of everyday – and to provide a sanctuary for creativity.”
“WOODSTOCK A-I-R encourages participants to pursue creative risk-taking in an environment rich in cultural resources. Working without distraction or interruption, participants focus intensely on their own work, continuing works in progress, setting goals for the future, and breaking new ground.”

Instituto Sacatar Visual Arts Residency

http://www.sacatar.org/

“The INSTITUTO SACATAR operates a residency program for creative individuals in all disciplines at its estate on the Island of Itaparica in the Bay of All Saints, across from the city of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.”

“The purpose of the Instituto Sacatar is:

• To provide artists a place to live and create
• To generate opportunities for artists to interact and collaborate with the local and regional community
• To enhance the visibility and cultural impact of the host city and nation
• To encourage art that returns us to where art began — to a wordless silence before all of creation”

“We are in a somewhat primitive location and encourage artists to work primitively - that is, simply and directly with few complex tools, materials or technologies.”

PhotoGlobal Residency

http://www.sva.edu/special-programs/photoglobal

PhotoGlobal is a one year program for international photographers to share in the vast creative opportunities that the School of Visual Arts and New York City has to offer. The post-baccalaureate certificate program fosters work of the advanced photographer through critique, lectures, museum and gallery visits and a dialogue with faculty and other participants.

• Participate in an individual critique class and a contemporary photography seminar, along with three electives of your choice.
• Features a lecturing faculty that, individually, has shaped the discourse of contemporary American photography
• Multi-cultural and international learning experience that will enhance the knowledge and understanding of both the resident undergraduate students and those who will gather from various parts of the world

Lastly, here's a really interesting site you may already be familiar with that hosts work from all sorts of up-and-coming visual artists:

http://www.booooooom.com/

“Booooooom was launched in 2008 by Vancouver-based artist Jeff Hamada, with the hope that it would foster a community of people excited to go out and be creative. It has quickly become one of the largest blogs on the internet, with 3 million pageviews each month, and readers from all over the world. Incredibly, this is mainly the result of good old fashion word-of-mouth! So if you’ve told even one person about this place hold your hand up to the monitor and accept this high-five! Did you feel that? That was no regular high-five, that was the highest-five in the history of highs and fives.”
