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.
