Project Anywhere is an expanded exhibition model encompassing the entire globe in which the role of curator is replaced with a peer-review system comparable with a refereed journal. Emphasizing research outside conventional exhibition circuits, Project Anywhere is specifically dedicated to promoting art at the outermost limits of location specificity.
Following an exhaustive international peer validation and editorial process, we are delighted to promote our 2014 international exhibition program:
Project Anywhere endorses a peer review system comparable with the journal-based paradigm for assessing the quality of research outcomes in the arts. Accordingly, Project Anywhere is designed to serve artist academics working anywhere in the world that are seeking independent peer-validation and international dissemination for their research.
Project Anywhere endorses a rigorous two-stage peer review process. First, an independent blind peer review of proposal submissions by multiple artist academics of international standing is employed in order to rate and select hosted projects. Finally, a second open peer review determines which project outcomes are finally archived as "validated research outcomes."
Project Anywhere accepts proposals for individual and collaborative projects from artists working anywhere in the world. With only five projects hosted each year, selection is extremely competitive. Project Anywheredoes not provide project funding nor expect exclusivity. We also welcome multi-partnered and collaborative projects and/or projects that are hosted by other arts institutions that are seeking peer-validation.
Please send proposals (as an attachment) to projectanywhere@gmail.com.
Your proposal should include the following:
– Title of proposed project
– Location(s), date(s) and duration for proposed project (this can be updated later)
– A detailed project proposal clearly stating the project's potential for creating new knowledge (please refer to the peer review guidelines)
– Images, files (under 8mg in total) and links can be included where appropriate
To be eligible for peer review process, it is imperative that all name and contact details are removed from the proposal document (and accompanying materials). Contact details should only be included in the body of the email. Any submissions that do not conform to the above criteria will not be sent out for peer review.
The deadline for proposal submissions for our 2015 program is September 1, 2014.

Artist in residence: The artist studios of Last Ship are situated opposite the UNESCO World Heritage temples of Khajuraho. The Viswanath temple built in 999 AD is right in front, less than 20 meters from Last Ship. Little known prehistoric and ancient historic sites in this region tell parts of a story more than 10,000 years old, of the Mughals, the Chandelas, going back to the Guptas, the Kushans, the Shungas and the Indo-Greeks all the way to prehistoric cave-dwellers, revealing secrets of the birth of the philosophies of Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism and their common Tantric spiritual traditions. The artists of the residency are invited to have their own experience of this heritage, like the sadhus, aghoris, and mystics who make solitary pilgrimages through this region, called the most powerful tantric region in the world, in search of enlightenment. The Last Ship residency program is a one-of-a-kind experience of a history, nature and culture, hidden in the chaos and turmoil...
