China Residencies is offering Chinese and international artists, curators and researchers to apply for a 1-3 month residency at the A4 Art Museum for 2020. In the meanwhile, starting from 2019, A4 International Artists’ Residency Program will put emphasis on the sphere of public art, such as land art, outdoor sculptures, installations, communal art and so on. In addition to the program’s customary support, selected artists can, according to the proposal, obtain the extra budget and the chance to install the final work in the public area. At present, the ARIE Program is divided into four distinct sections: invitational residencies, two-way city residency exchanges, open applications for international and domestic artists, and residencies specifically for public art projects. The ARIE residencies are concentrated between May and the following January, and the program can accommodate 10-11 artists at a time. The ARIE Program space is located in the LUXELAKES Eco-City, which is home to twelve independent artist studios, two public event areas, and one 1230-square-meter exhibition space. There are also eleven apartments in the city for resident artists to use.

Entry Requirements:

  1. The program mainly targets at artists or art groups with over 3 years of experience in art creation or curation, who have independent ideas and have breakthrough practices in their fields. 
  2. Artists or curators should mainly come from the field of contemporary art, with no limitation on the media used for creation. 
  3. The size of easel painting pictures and similar artworks should be of the same viewing quality, about 1M in size and named in the standard order (name of the artist, name of the work, category/ material, size, and year).
  4. Music and similar works should provide an MP3 document or website link; performance art and installation work should provide image information and descriptions with the quality of the picture and format the same as described above. 
  5. The work of other types can use supporting materials accordingly. 
  6. All materials should be in English.

Funding:

The A4 residency program is an important project under the umbrella of the academic/curatorial department of A4. The A4 art museum is a non-profit, private museum registered under Chinese law. The residency is funded by the sponsors of the museum. At the moment, it provides a round-trip plane ticket, accommodations, studio, material fees, different kinds of salons and sharing sessions and other opportunities; the specifics are determined by the project of the artist and the yearly schedule of projects and events of the museum. In terms of the expenses which are covered by the artist, these change from year to year. Selected artists will be equipped with a program assistant and be professionally supported by the staff of the museum. Throughout the residency, artists will have the opportunity to attend assorted activities and put on a final exhibition to end this unique residency program that helps artists dive into the local social fabrics and urban spaces.
