Call for Artists: Transparent Studio at Bose Pacia  DEADLINE: APRIL 13TH, 2013
Call for Artists: Transparent Studio at Bose Pacia

APPLICATION PERIOD IS NOW CLOSED

By turning our ground level gallery space into a temporary artist studio in an active arts neighborhood, we are fostering an atmosphere of engagement and conversation around the creative process. The public is invited to stop in throughout the duration of the program to interact with the artist about their process. Each project space term will culminate in an evening with the artist that will coincide with the monthly Dumbo First Thursday event. The program is open to emerging and mid-career artists working in all media practices. We encourage innovative and experimental project proposals. Below we have listed additional information on eligibility and submission instructions.

Dates of residencies:
-July 30th - September 14th (event: September 5th)
-September 17 – October 26th (event: Oct 3rd & DUMBO Arts Festival Sept 27 - Sept 29)
-October 29th - December 14th (event: December 5th)

Cost to applicants: While there are no explicit fees associated with participating in the studio program, artists will be responsible for covering all costs for materials, supplies, installation, transportation, and any production-related costs. The gallery will not cover any room & board expenses so non-NYC artists should be prepared to cover those expenses.

Eligibility: The Transparent Studio program is open to emerging and mid-career individual artists and established collaborations of four or fewer artists. Artists who have not been included in a previous Bose Pacia exhibition will be given preference.

Deadline: Only submissions received by April 13th, 2013 will be considered. Selected artists will be announced in May 2013.

Application fee: none

Selection criteria: Artists will be selected based on the merit of their past work, career record, and the projected value of their proposed project for the residency period and beyond.
