Amant Studio & Research Residency Program allows artists from around the world to spend three months in New York City to develop a specific research project that would benefit from the city’s communities, archives, resources, and vibrant art scene. The residency is self-directed and research-based, as the studios are not designed for the production or fabrication of large-scale artworks. Residents are encouraged to participate in an active dialogue with other residents and with Amant’s staff, as well as in Amant´s many public programs and activities. Amant highly values and promotes cross-disciplinary conversations.
