Art-Residence of Bishkek School of Contemporary Art “Bulbul” — Standart Residency Programme — Autumn 2026

Overview
The Art-Residence of Bishkek School of Contemporary Art 'Bulbul' announces an open call for its Standart Residency Programme for Autumn 2026. Situated in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, the residency provides a focused environment for practitioners working across translation, music, and dance. This interdisciplinary call reflects the school's commitment to fostering dialogue between language, movement, and sound within the context of Central Asia's contemporary art landscape. The residency is designed to support creative research and production, offering selected artists the time and space to develop new work. While specific details regarding duration, stipend, and facilities are not provided in the available information, the programme's emphasis on translation alongside music and dance suggests a curatorial interest in cross-disciplinary translation—both linguistic and embodied. Artists working at the intersections of these fields are encouraged to consider how their practice might engage with the unique cultural and historical context of Bishkek. As a residency hosted by the Bishkek School of Contemporary Art, the programme likely facilitates interaction with local artistic communities and offers a platform for international exchange. The Autumn 2026 term presents an opportunity for sustained inquiry and experimentation, free from the pressures of immediate output. Artists should note that the deadline and fee structure are currently unconfirmed; interested applicants are advised to monitor the organization's official channels for forthcoming details.
