Open Call: Triangle Artists’ Workshop in New York Open Call: Triangle Artists’ Workshop in New York


The Triangle Artists’ Workshop – our flagship program – is an intense two-week studio session for an international group of 25-30 professional visual artists. Neither an art colony nor a school, the workshop offers a unique occasion for artists to meet and exchange ideas, not simply through talking, but by making art side by side for a concentrated period in a self-contained location. During the workshop, artists receive organized studio visits from critics, writers and curators, and participate in two organized panel discussions. The workshop culminates in an Open Studio exhibition, free and open to the general public.
