THE STANDARD RESIDENCY 

In 1999, Wildacres Retreat opened our residency program for artists.  Since that time, we have had the opportunity to host hundreds of writers, artisans, and musicians. Participants in the program stay in one of three self-catering cabins located just a quarter-mile beyond the retreat entrance. One of the cabins is completely ADA compliant and another can house two residents working on a project together.

Using the space provided by the three cabins, Wildacres hosts approximately seventy artists each year for one-week residencies from April through October. Residencies begin on Monday afternoons and run until Sunday mornings. While there are landlines at each residency cabin, there is no internet access in the cabins, and cellphones do not typically connect except in the main part of the retreat where we do have WiFi access.  The residency program allows artists the solitude and inspiration needed to begin or continue work on a project in their particular field of creative arts.  Past residents tell us that being able to work in such a secluded, natural setting provides them with an unparalleled opportunity to step away from outside distractions and completely focus on their work.

LAUREL CABIN: Wildacres residencies are offered at no cost to participants.  Residents have the option to eat in the dining room with other residents, guests, and staff, or they may prepare their own meals in their cabin.  Participants are responsible for providing their own transportation to and from Wildacres, as well as while they are at the retreat.  They are also responsible for any supplies they may need during their residency.  As the residencies are intended to be working retreats, spouses/partners, guests, and pets are not permitted. AZALEA CABIN: We allow two people collaborating on a project to come together and stay in Azalea cabin, which has a loft to accommodate a second person. When two candidates apply for a joint residency, we ask them to fill out one application stating the nature of their project and include information about both participants, as well as resumes from both individuals. OWL’S NEST CABIN: Each year we offer a few two-week residencies. Individuals wishing to apply for a two-week residency are required to answer questions on the application specifically about that length of stay. Our two-week residencies are very limited and not guaranteed.

Wildacres Residency Program

CRITICAL RACE THEORY AND VISUAL CULTURE FELLOWSHIP
Fellowships are awarded every year to established and promising scholars with the aim of fostering a critical commitment to inquiry in the theory, history, and interpretation of art and visual culture. As part of our commitment to cultivating diverse engagements with the visual arts, RAP seeks to elevate constituencies, subjects, and methods that have historically been underrepresented in the discipline. Furthermore, we are particularly committed to supporting scholarship that reveals the systemic inequalities of art history as a discipline and challenges us to address these inequalities as we move forward differently. All fellowships are intended to nurture a variety of disciplinary approaches and support new voices in art history.

This fellowship aims to support scholars who are working to reimagine new art histories while also engaging with the structural racism that has informed and built the discipline.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY AND VISUAL ART FELLOWSHIP

Three times a year, Artpace invites a guest curator to choose three artists to live and create art in San Antonio for two months. Each residency cycle includes one international, one national, and one Texas-based artist. Each resident receives a studio/exhibition space, an on-site furnished apartment, access to a van, a $6,000 stipend, up to a $10,000 production budget, and the support of a full-time staff.

Resident artists are encouraged to push their creative practice that must result in a new exhibition. The work created is exhibited for two months at Artpace and goes on to appear in private and public collections worldwide. All art made during the residency belongs to the artist. The mission of the program is to provide artists with unparalleled resources that enable them to experiment with new ideas, take provocative risks, and realize innovative and ambitious new work.

While in residence, the artists are encouraged to share their ideas and become involved with the San Antonio and Texas art communities. Public programs such as the Open Studios and Artists’ Dialogues serve to connect audiences with Artpace resident artists.

Shearing Fellowship

In 2024, the Deutsche Fotothek will celebrate its 100th anniversary. To mark this occasion, a photographic-artistic fellowship will be awarded in 2023 for a photographic work engaging with one of Germany’s largest image archives..

The Deutsche Fotothek was founded in Chemnitz in 1924 as the Sächsische Landesbildstelle (Saxon state image archive). Located in Dresden from 1925 onwards, it evolved into a photo archive on art history and cultural history with an increasingly universal aspiration after 1945. Today, with around 6 million media resources, the Deutsche Fotothek is a place for the preservation, professional archiving, research as well as web-based presentation of photographic works and estates of important German photographers or photographers working in Germany.

With the photographic-artistic fellowship we invite you to realise a photographic work on the Deutsche Fotothek. It will be added to the collection and presented as part of its centenary exhibition in 2024. Possible topics are the Fotothek as a place, its historical structure or functionality, or generally the dispositif of the photographic archive, the collection or individual photographic holdings as well as media focal points. The result should have a form which is suitable for storage in a photographic archive. Information on the Deutsche Fotothek can be found on this website.

The fellowship will be remunerated in the form of a work contract endowed with EUR 10,000 gross. This includes the acquisition of the work by the Deutsche Fotothek, travel expenses, the production of the work as well as taxes. Applications (German or English) should be submitted as PDF and include a synopsis of the planned project as well as a motivation letter and time schedule (max. 2 pages), work samples and a tabular CV. The on-site research at the Deutsche Fotothek should take place in the first six months of 2023 and the work should be handed over by 31st October 2023.

Deutsche Fotothek Fellowship

As part of ECDC’s community engagement we are creating an artist in-residence programme from Autumn 2022 to enable a rolling programme of artists, to create portraits of or with members of the community at the Earls Court site and run art classes for the local community. Each paid residency will last three months and will be based in a studio at the recently opened ECDC Community Hub on Aisgill Avenue, West Kensington.We are issuing an open call to artists who will receive a short-term residency of three months, with renumeration of £3,000 per month. Whilst in residence the artists will be required to create portraits of members of the community. ECDC would also like the artist to commit to hosting art classes for the community and contributing to talks. Art classes and workshops will be supported by the ECDC community team. Artists should enjoy engaging and supporting community projects and be prepared to host art classes for local people.To explore the gamut of approaches to portraiture, ECDC will commission artists working in a range of mediums/styles and from a breadth of ethnicities and backgrounds. The emphasis will be on quality of work, the commitment to the project (bringing new ideas re engagement and approaches to working with the community) and ability to work with and communicate well with the public. Each artist would need to produce at least one outcome based on the community brief. Once finished the ambition is for the artists’ work to be installed around the Earls Court site. Providing an artistic record of community members who contribute to this remarkable district.
