Neilton Clarke in Paris

by Leave a Comment

Sydney Printmakers member Neilton Clarke is currently undertaking a residency at Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris until the new year, on what is his fifth sojourn, having first gone there from 1988 to 1989 on an AGNSW Moya Dyring Scholarship. Hosting artists, musicians, writers, academics and the like from around the globe, the Cité was co-founded in 1965 by husband-&-wife team Felix and Simone Brunau, the latter of whom, as its secretary general, president, and honorary president, passed away in 2021 at the age of 95. Spread over two Paris locales – the Marais site in the 4th arrondissement, and the Montmartre site in the 18th arrondissement – its individual live-in studios are supplemented by a range of facilities including an auditorium, rehearsal studios, and collective studios for both printmaking and ceramics. The Café des Arts offers residents a place to take a break and meet fellow artists.

The Tate Adams Memorial Residency at Baldessin Press

by Leave a Comment

State Library Victoria, in partnership with the Baldessin Press, is offering a new artist’s book residency as part of the annual fellowship program.

The Tate Adams Memorial Residency is offered to an artist to accomplish a limited edition or unique state artist’s book, using research from State Library Victoria and the studio facilities at Baldessin Press & Studio.

The Baldessin Press can supply studio access, accommodation and assistance to facilitate the book project in many ways, to the sum of $5000 over the 12-month period.

The recipient also has the opportunity to participate in an event to present their project to the Library, the public and other supporters.

Applications

Applications for the 2019–20 fellowship are now open. Fellowship applications must be received by midnight on Sunday 28 April 2019.

The creative content of applications is of primary importance. Along with clearly describing the book’s proposed content, design and appearance as a finished object, applications can include original text, typography, sketches or examples, proposed printmaking components and binding or presentation. Each application will be judged on individual merit, including the artist’s personal conception, expression and definition of book art.

Note: Applicants must include documented and dated images of their work, along with links to any websites where their work is displayed.
