RESIDENCIES AT GASWORKS (LONDON)
SPONSORED BY CBAT
Photography: Ioana Marinescu
CBAT's primary funding program supports a Residency for a Bolivian artist at Gasworks in London. Gasworks is a renowned contemporary visual arts organization that provides unique opportunities for international artists to conduct research and develop new work while based in London. Please refer to the attached document for a detailed 'Gasworks Residency Programme Overview':
The program welcomes artists working in all disciplines, with some limitations based on Gasworks' facilities and location (their studios are relatively small and unsuitable for stone carving and welding). Priority is given to emerging and mid-career artists with high-quality work who have not yet had the chance to work in London.
Application and Selection Process:
Artists can only apply through Gasworks' online "Open Invitation to Apply." This invitation is advertised in CBAT's social media channels, and via curators, writers, scholars, and other contacts of the CBAT. Gasworks assembles a selection committee, which CBAT joins, although Gasworks ultimately makes the final selection.
Upon completion of the selection process, there is ample time for Gasworks and the selected artist to establish connections, secure visas, and initiate the residency's active development and promotion. The selected artist will have access to private studio space and receive pastoral support throughout their stay. Accommodation is provided in a shared residency house near Gasworks studios, where the artist will have a private bedroom and share common areas with three other visiting artists.
