Opportunities for Artists in Canada
Overview
Artis is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting contemporary art and artists worldwide. Its residency program in Canada offers a focused period of research, production, and dialogue within a supportive environment. While specific parameters are yet to be announced, the opportunity aligns with Artis's commitment to fostering critical practices and international exchange. The residency provides artists with time and space to develop new work, free from the pressures of daily life. Past residencies have included studio access, mentorship, and opportunities for public engagement, though the exact offerings for this iteration remain to be confirmed. Artists should anticipate a rigorous and collegial atmosphere conducive to experimentation and risk-taking. Curatorially, Artis seeks proposals that demonstrate a clear artistic vision and a thoughtful approach to context. The selection committee values projects that engage with contemporary discourse and have the potential to evolve during the residency. This call is open to visual and digital artists at various career stages, with an emphasis on those whose practices would benefit from the resources and community that Artis provides.
