| 2011-12 Workspace Residency Application Residency for New York State emerging artists Apply online beginning May 2 Established in 1990, the Workspace Program provides annual residencies to New York State emerging artists to create new work in handmade paper. The program encourages emerging artists to explore the creative possibilities inherent in the hand papermaking process, to develop this medium as a contemporary art form, and also promote the work produced in residency. Workspace Resident artists will be selected by a panel and interview process. Each artist is paired with a master papermaker creating a unique collaborative experience where a new medium can be quickly learned and put into practice. Experimentation is highly encouraged throughout the residency. Applicants will be asked to submit ten JPGs suitable for projection, a CV or resume, and to answer a few questions regarding their working practice and how a residency at Dieu Donné might further their artistic practice. The online application window is from May 2 — May 31, 2011.
