Art Residency Program is a new project launched by IZOLYATSIA. The aim of the project is to attract the attention of international artists to Donetsk and the region as a space with a great potential for cultural development. The project offers artists to work on a proposed curatorial theme, and by immersing themselves within an unfamiliar environment, to create works, which are a reflection of their understanding of Donetsk as a social and cultural phenomenon.

Artists selected for the program are invited to live in Donetsk, Ukraine, for any 4 weeks from 4 July to 15 August, 2011. During the residency, artists will have an opportunity to attend a masterclass and have their portfolios reviewed by Boris Mikhailov. In return, each artist-in-residence will have to hold a one-day masterclass for local photographers.

Artists-in-residence will have to complete and submit their series by 3 September, 2011, in order to participate in the exhibition that will start at the end of 2011.

Artists will receive a $1,000 USD stipend and shared accommodation with a personal room in the vicinity of the Izolyatsia gallery space. Travel expenses to Donetsk up to $1,000 USD will be covered. Translators and fixers can be arranged in advance. If needed, letter of invitation for visa applications will be provided.

IZOLYATSIA will print and retain all works included in the exhibition. Photographers will hold all the copyrights relating to those works. A book about the project will be published to coincide with the opening of the exhibition.

Artists are encouraged to bring their own computers and any necessary equipment.

 .

All artists working in photography and related media are eligible to apply. Applications will be accepted until April 15, 2011. Artists-in-residence will be chosen by April 25, 2011.

Artists should submit by email the following:

* Letter of intent, describing plans for residency – please be concise
* Current CV
* A link to a website with at least two complete stories (including artist statements and captions)

Applications can be submitted in either English, Ukrainian or Russian.

In support of young scholars conducting innovative research in contemporary art, Art&Education is pleased to announce a Call for Papers for its inaugural Papers Prize, which includes a research sum of 2000 USD and the opportunity to present a paper at a conference, organized by Artforum & e-flux co-sponsored by Society of Contemporary Art Historians, on the subject of the deregulation in art practice and history. What is the relationship between art and deregulation? Over the past four decades, the deregulation of global markets has been accompanied by the rise of flexible labor, the proliferation of highly sophisticated financial instruments, and increasing social complexity. Art&Education wishes to examine the possible links between such economic shifts, the putative rise of post-industrial society, and contemporary artistic practices, taking into account the renewed global interest in performativity, social and technological networks, and collaboration.  By considering such topics in dialogue or counterpoint with historical precedents, we hope to arrive at a more sophisticated understanding of artistic production and reception today–a field in which rules aren’t bent but are simply fluid.

 .

Proposals may include subjects such as:

• Pre-histories and legacies of institutional critique
• Models of artistic autonomy within historical conditions of economic deregulation
• The legislation of public-private partnership between the state, funders, and art institutions
• The recent “pedagogical turn” in which art and education entwined, and the concurrent decline of higher education and student activism
• The changing forms of artistic resistance and critique, to include strategies of appropriation, mimicry and performativity
• The rise of alternative spaces, and their changing relation to traditional spaces of the museum, gallery and studio
• Post-studio art practices and the dematerialized artwork as it relates to social and economic mechanisms of Post-Fordism.
• Reconfiguration of Think Tanks as a discursive and social model in contemporary art

   .

Final Entries will be reviewed by the Selection Jury: Daniel Birnbaum, Director, Moderna Museet Claire Bishop, Associate Professor of Art History, The Graduate Center, CUNY Tim Griffin, Artforum International Suzanne Hudson, Co-founder and President of the Society of Contemporary Art Historians Molly Nesbit, Professor Art History, Vassar College Brian Kuan Wood, Editor, e-flux journal

One submission will be chosen as a recipient of the Art&Education Papers Prize. The winner and two-runners up will be given the opportunity to present a 20-minute portion of their research at a conference, featuring both invited and submitted papers and presentations. Details will be announced at a later date. Texts should be research-based articles pertaining to art history or contemporary art, and may be drawn from conference papers, seminar papers, dissertation chapters, etc.  All submitted texts will be considered for publication on Art&Education We ask that you submit pieces anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 words with a 100 word abstract and full contact information by midnight of May 30th 2011. No late submissions will be considered. Please submit articles, abstract and bios by email to papers@artandeducation.net. A free contributor-driven platform, A&E Papers seeks to expand publication opportunities for art historians, theorists, curators, and artists, and to make papers more easily available to the public.
