International Center for Environmental Arts (ICEA):
German Goethe Institut launches Artist-in-Residence program
Environmental Artist David Jakupca, Founder and Director of the The International Center for Environmental Arts (ICEA) in Cleveland, Ohio is announcing that starting in September, 2005, the Goethe Institut will hold its first Artist-in-Residence program, enabling young artists and curators from Germany to work overseas for a period of four to six weeks.
This program will give scholarship recipients an opportunity to make contacts, gain ideas and form networks for future work in connection with an art project. Recipients will be tended on location by the Goethe Institutes in cooperation with local art academies and museums. Vital elements of this Artist-in-Residence program include mediating intense contacts with art galleries, curators and artists and including them in the cultural program work of the local Goethe-Institutes.
The Fine Arts Advisory Board of Goethe Institut will nominate artists and curators for the program while a three-member jury, reappointed annually from the members of the board in order to ensure the broad range of the program, will choose the scholarship recipients. The residencies will be held each year at five different sites within the worldwide Goethe Institut network.
In 2005, the following artists were selected and invited to receive a four-week scholarship: The photographers Christine Fenzl to São Paulo, Oliver Sieber and Katja Stuke to Toronto, filmmaker and author Hito Steyerl to Sarajevo and video artist Asli Sungu to Beirut. Nina Moentmann will journey to India for a six-week curator residency.
