Residency programme for artists and curators 2017-2018

The application is open to an individual artist, a group of artists or an independent curator.

The residency will culminate with an exhibition so applications are to include a detailed plan for the time to be spent at the residency, and an initial concept for the exhibition.   

We support artists and curators to hold local workshops and events during their residency. We also promote collaborative projects with other galleries and spaces in Niigata and Tokyo for the participating residents.

The application is open all year round

Dates of residency:

From March – May / October – December

Duration: 4 – 6 weeks

Accommodation: 2 rooms with 3 beds and futons (up to 4 persons)

Facilities: Wood workshop (Please ask for details)

Funds:

The gallery offers accommodation and transportation within the Tokamachi city area.

We offer Japanese grants support, but urge artists to also try and seek for funding from their individual countries.
