Artists Communities: A Directory of Residences that Offer Time and Space for Creativity
3d Edition
by Alliance of Artistsí Communities
This "bible" of creative residency programs returns with fresh information and new features for artists of all disciplines. The directory provides a comprehensive index of over 300 residency programs worldwide, along with two-page profiles and photographs of 95 leading artists' communities.
A user-friendly layout allows for quick scanning of facility descriptions, admission deadlines, stipends and fees, selection processes, odds of acceptance, special programs, and institutional history. Carefully designed charts help artists pinpoint residency programs based on such factors as artistic discipline, region, admission deadlines, residency season, fees and stipends, and accessibility for artists with disabilities.
Additionally, five artists of varying disciplines and backgrounds recount their experiences at artists' communities, eloquently describing the unique value of residencies to the creative process. For artists seeking to boost their creativity in a fresh and inspiring setting, this book is the number one informational clearing house. |
