Rupert is an independent, non-profit art centre in Vilnius, Lithuania, dedicated to supporting artistic research and production. Its residency programme provides selected artists with the opportunity to develop new work in a supportive environment, free from the pressures of commercial or exhibition deadlines. The programme is known for its emphasis on experimentation, critical discourse, and cross-disciplinary exchange. The residency offers artists a studio space, accommodation, and a stipend, along with access to Rupert's network of local and international artists, curators, and thinkers. While the exact duration and terms of the 2023 open call are not specified in the provided information, Rupert's residencies typically last two to three months and include public programming, mentorship, and opportunities for presentation. Rupert's curatorial vision is rooted in fostering contemporary art practices that engage with social, political, and aesthetic questions. The programme encourages artists to take risks, explore new directions, and engage with the local context of Vilnius and the broader Baltic region. It is particularly suited to artists who value process over product and who seek a reflective, research-driven residency experience.
