The application deadline for the FALL 2016 residence is May 30, 2016.

The application deadline for the FALL 2016 residence is May 30, 2016. All applicants will be notified by June 30, 2016. Interested artists should submit the application form.
The Department of Art, Art History, and Design (DAAHD), in collaboration with the College of Arts and Letters, the Lyman Briggs College of Science, the Abrams Planetarium and the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, offers the opportunity for an artist to engage in cross-disciplinary practice in collaboration with one or more scientific departments on campus at Michigan State University. The mission of this new residency program is to allow experienced national and international artists to engage in creative research bridging scientific inquiry, the arts and the humanities, and to develop a new or ongoing artistic research project. The residency includes a period of 2-4 weeks between October - December 2016, which can also be split into two periods. The BRIDGE stipend of up to $10,000 will be provided by MSU to cover travel and living expenses, a honorarium, and to contribute to the production of work to be included in a curated final group show of all BRIDGE residents at the Broad Art Museum at MSU in 2018. The chosen artist may interact with faculty members and students in different fields such as (but not limited to) the physical and biological sciences, ecology, critical design, architecture, engineering, climate science, microbiome studies, artificial evolution, water quality research, epistemology, science & technology studies, etc., including hands-on experience and the use of the university’s technical fabrication facilities. The resident is expected to engage in public outreach, and to address the philosophical, aesthetic and ethical challenges and societal ramifications connected to the chosen research field/s.
The new BRIDGE Artist in Residency Program has been initiated by Associate Professor Adam Brown and distinguished affiliated faculty Jens Hauser at the Department of Art, Art History and Design, to boost intermedia research within the ‘epistemological turn’ where art is no longer only concerned with the production of forms and narratives any more, but increasingly engaging in alternative knowledge production, informed techno-scientific critique and the questioning of the particular materials and technical media that increasingly shape our world views. The applications will be reviewed by a jury representing the College of Arts and Letters, the Lyman Briggs College of Science, the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, and the Abrams Planetarium. The deadline is May 30, 2016. All applicants will be notified by June 30, 2016. MSU is committed to achieving excellence through a diverse workforce and inclusive culture that encourages all people to reach their full potential. The University actively encourages applications of women, persons of color, veterans and persons with disabilities.
Artists interested in the first residence in Fall 2016 should submit:
  • short biography (100-300 words) and a max. 3 page CV
  • short project draft (max. 500 words)
  • a list of materials, techniques and equipment required
  • a tentative list of MSU researchers or departments for possible collaborations
  • possible dates for the residency
  • a website and/or a PDF portfolio

Open Call for Artists (Winter 2025-26) Last Ship Art Residency @Khajuraho

  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...
