The ArtsLink Back Apartment Residency program provides opportunities for US artists and curators to conduct research, create new work, collaborate with the local arts community, and create special projects in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Each residency is individually designed to enable visiting artists and curators to learn about the Russian arts community, develop their own work, and share information about their work and cultural practice with local audiences.
Artists and curators interested in learning about contemporary art in Russia and building relationships with the local arts community are invited to apply. Although preference is given to artists and curators working in socially engaged art and public art, applications from practicioners in other art fields will also be considered.
CEC ArtsLink currently supports residencies only for artists and curators from the United States. CEC ArtsLink provides international travel, visa support and insurance (if needed), accommodation, and per diem. The duration of the Residency in St. Petersburg is 4 weeks for artists and 2 weeks for curators. Back Apartment Residency awardees are announced by mid-March, 2021.
