Market Gallery's Reader Residency enters its third iteration as a funded opportunity for a Glasgow-based artist or researcher. The residency positions the gallery's Resource Library not as a static archive but as a generative space—a collection to be interrogated, recontextualized, and activated through sustained engagement. This call is for those who treat research as a material practice, where reading, indexing, and conversation become forms of production. The selected resident will receive funding to support their work, with the expectation that the library's holdings serve as both catalyst and collaborator. Market Gallery has a history of supporting experimental and discursive practices, and this residency continues that commitment by offering time, resources, and institutional context to a practitioner whose work is driven by curiosity and critical rigor. The outcome is not prescribed; rather, the residency values process, dialogue, and the potential for the library to function as a living resource. This is not a traditional studio residency. It is an invitation to think alongside a collection—to consider how a library might be performed, cited, disrupted, or expanded. The gallery seeks proposals that demonstrate a genuine investment in the politics and poetics of knowledge organization, and that can articulate how the Resource Library might become a site of public or semi-public encounter. The residency is designed for someone who reads widely, thinks deeply, and works across disciplines.
