Artist Lab: Art Meets History in New Mexico

CALL TO ARTISTS

4-week, virtual/online lab March 29 - April 26, 2021 

DEADLINE TO APPLY: February 28, 2021

Visual artists with an established practice are invited to apply for Artist Lab: Art Meets History in New Mexico a four-week educational program designed to foster the integration of history into contemporary art practices. Presented as a collaboration between 516 ARTS, Kolaj Institute, and Albuquerque Museum’s Photography Archives, the program includes 12-15 sessions online. Specific dates and times of lab sessions are scheduled with the accepted participants. Artists with a professional art practice from anywhere in the world are eligible to apply.

 

The Lab looks at how our divergent histories of race, conflict, and colonialism inform how we imagine our futures. Participating artists are asked to work from their own people’s history, to confront that history, and to imagine a future that offers justice, fairness, and support for all people. A goal of the lab is a proposal for a body of artwork to be considered for a group exhibition at 516 ARTS in 2022. 516 ARTS has dedicated a fund to commission artworks for the exhibition.

Learn more about Artist Lab: Art Meets History in New Mexico here.

​

The fee for the Lab is $750 per artist; however, no artist will be turned away for lack of funds, and the organizers will work with artists to build a financial aid package. 516 ARTS is providing a limited number of scholarships to artists from New Mexico, artists from Mexico whose work focuses on the US/Mexico border, and artists who are Native American, Alaskan Native, or First Nations.

​

The Artist Lab is intended for self-motivated artists, regardless of the stage in their careers, who are interested in developing a practice of working with historic content in a contemporary context. They can be from anywhere in the world. Artists from Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and Asian communities are encouraged to apply.

For over fifty years the Roswell Artist-in-Residence Program has provided talented artists working in any medium a full year to focus on their creative endeavors. Start dates of the six annual residencies are staggered throughout the year. The residency provides each artist with a comfortable 3 bedroom house with an attached 600 square ft studio with utilities paid. A stipend of $1100 per month is offered along with $100 for a spouse/partner and each child living at the resident. We are currently able to give an extra $100 per child ($200 total per child) thanks to a matching grant from the Sustainable Arts Foundation.

Very few demands are made upon the artist in residence but The Roswell Museum of Art generally extends an offer to residents to exhibit and lecture during their year. Spouses and partners who travel with the artist are offered a studio and use of the facilities on a first-come, first-serve basis.

City of Santa Fe Arts and Culture Department

Culture Connects Coalition Artist Relief Fund

 

The City of Santa Fe recognizes the important role that artists and creatives have played in our culture and our economy. That’s why it is with great pleasure that the City Arts and Culture Department announces its partnership with Lannan Foundation in the creation of the Culture Connects Coalition Artist Relief Fund. \

 

The Culture Connects Coalition fund’s first initiative is a response to the current COVID-19 public health pandemic and the subsequent suspension of events in our community.  The impact of these suspensions will have a ripple effect throughout our artistic community, adversely impacting artists, their families and the greater community. Following the City of Boston’s lead, awards from $500-$1,000 will be made to artists-in-need through a less-formalized grant process through the Culture Connects lens of equity, inclusion and access. Depending on funding levels and the number of requests, priority will be given to artists from communities that have been historically and systemically economically disadvantaged.  Our goal is to support as many Santa Fe artists as possible. 

 

As a result of the overwhelming response from Santa Fe artists, the Arts and Culture Department has closed Round One of the Artist Relief Fund Grant program. In just TWO days over 150 artists have responded and, to that end, we will start working on reviewing the applications in the following week with a goal of distributing funds within an anticipated 30 days. Depending upon the results of Phase One and the amount of total funding available for distribution, we anticipate re-opening the Fund for a second phase in May. Selected artists from Phase One will not be eligible to apply for Phase Two, however artists who were not selected are encouraged to re-apply when the application goes live again.

The Jam Stand: sound/music residency

The Jam Stand is a sound/music residency based along the Rio Grande valley south of Albuquerque.  Every year, participants are chosen to come out for up to two weeks and work independently towards personal growth and development in the Jam Stand studio.  This is time for artists to explore, strengthen and expand skill sets and to take some time to get back to the roots of their audiological expression.  We hope that this time helps sound artists and musicians to move toward their goals or re-orient.  We believe that giving artists time an space to work is one of the most valuable gifts and hope to continue sharing these resources.   Each resident is filmed during their stay and a video produced looking behind the scenes at their process and some of the sounds they made while at the Jam Stand. For how to apply visit https://www.facebook.com/JamStandOfficial

Resolana Farms

Creative Residencies and Retreats

 Resolana Farms has been a stopping-place for journeyers, artists, writers, and explorers for hundreds of years. This gem of a ranchito is a watering hole, both physically and metaphorically, providing nourishment and creative inspiration to many who pass through or stop to rest a while. The signature red cliffs of Resolana Farms soften into grama grass barrancas, then drop down onto the Poleo Creek and the acequia-fed fields to the south. The elements of this landscape are in constant dialogue, a kinetic dance of light and shadow, moisture and drought, of time, entropy, and human energy through the centuries.

Program Goals:

• To give individual artists, creative, and spiritual practitioners the opportunity to unplug and recharge in the quiet magic of our northern New Mexico ranch.

• To encourage inspiration and new thinking gained from quiet, unscripted time on the land.

• To facilitate the completion of projects or catalyze new ones through intentional pause and time alone to write, read, create, walk, meditate, reflect, and restore.

Program Details: Residencies vary in length. The average stay is four nights. The minimum stay is two nights, and the maximum stay is one week.

Resident enjoys one-bedroom historic private home, and is responsible for bringing his or her own food and cooking all meals during the residency.

Railyard Art Project

Community Artists, Designers and Innovators:

The Railyard Art Committee (RAC) invites both individuals and creative teams to propose visual and performing art projects that are vital, lively and experimental for temporary installation within the Railyard Park + Plaza.

RAC will select thoughtful, playful art in the context of social, cultural expression and environmental sustainability.  Such issues may include – but are not limited – cultural heritage, site history, ecological restoration, and the building of a sustainable future.  Most importantly, projects should emphasize community enjoyment, engagement and participation.

The Railyard Park + Plaza was designed as a Cohesive Urban Art Environment and is a work of art in itself.  RAC encourages a continuation of the collaborative spirit that remains at it’s core.  Joint efforts across disciplines — artists, designers, scientists, historians, hydrologists, and many more — will be welcomed interactions with the original design.

All applications for installations, artworks and performances of a temporary nature that comply with the usage policies of the Railyard Park + Plaza are welcome. A limited number of honoraria, up to $500, are available in 2014 for exemplary projects. Ongoing.
