A.I.R.-polemics
- Is there a limit to the amount of residency programs world wide?
- Should we worry about the growing popularity of the artist-in-residence phenomenon?
- Or should we let the hype be the hype, and instead focus on the merits and benefits of residency opportunities?
What's your opinion?

Ik ben op zoek naar een groot atelier en ook een woning. Een atelierwoning (hoeft niet officieel te zijn) zou heel fijne zijn. Ik kan zelf een keuken/badkamer regelen.
Kortere or Langere tijd. Hoeft niet te registreeren.
Looking for a studio or living space.
combination of both would be great!

Hello everyone,
I am Mirella and looking for a place/various places to sleep over once a week in/around NIJMEGEN/ARNHEM from beginning of September on.
That specific night is Tuesday night.
I am going to study Creative Therapy at HAN (Hogeschool Arnhem & Nijmegen).
The lectures will end around 21.20 on Tuesday night and the next morning I will start again at 9 o'clock in the morning. I am living in Amsterdam so it is too much to travel back and forth on both days.
I do not need luxury, but a safe, quiet, clean and warm little corner with a madras.
Maybe you have a space for me or could TIP me about a possible space.
Please, contact me as soon as possible.
Friendly greetings,
Mirella

CALL FOR PAPERS: MOORE/HEPWORTH
A Collaborative Conference
Friday 3 & Saturday 4 June 2011
HENRY MOORE INSTITUTE ? LEEDS ART GALLERY ? YORKSHIRE SCULPTURE PARK
THE HEPWORTH WAKEFIELD ? ARTS COUNCIL COLLECTION AT LONGSIDE
In Spring 2011 focused attention will be given to the work of Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth in Yorkshire. It sees the opening of The Hepworth Wakefield gallery, with inaugural collections displays focussing on Hepworth?s sculpture, the retrospective exhibition of Moore?s work at Leeds Art Gallery, and the prominent inclusion of the two artists? work at the Henry Moore Institute and Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Next year therefore provides an excellent opportunity to consider the relationships between these two artists in the county of their birth. To enable this, five arts organisations in the region will work together to stage a conference ? the first in a series of collaborative events - that considers the local geographical, social and political contexts for the artistic development and subsequent critical reception of Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth.
This two-day conference invites papers that consider Moore and Hepworth in relation to their connections with the Yorkshire region. In doing so, we aim to begin these ?Moore/Hepworth? dialogues by focusing on three main areas of critical enquiry:
? Art education, tutors and Leeds College of Art curriculum in the pre- and post-1945 period
? British landscape, archaeology and the construction of person/place/art object identities and the ways that these two artists? Yorkshire ?roots? played an important part in the critical reception of their work
? Collections, exhibitions and the ways in which works of art were acquired and displayed in the region, indoor and outdoor, since the early twentieth century
It aims to examine critically the relationship between these artists and this region, exploring the specificity of place, re-examining the imagery of landscape and asking what impact art education and regional art galleries and collections had on their lives and works. We invite papers that examine the artists individually, however we particularly welcome papers that consider the two together.
The conference timetable will include opportunities to view the exhibitions on display at the five arts organisations at the time.
Please send a short CV and a 250 word abstract for your 20 minute-long paper to Kirstie Gregory (Research Programme Assistant at the Henry Moore Institute): kirstie@henry-moore.org
The deadline for submissions is 31st October 2010.

Henry Moore Institute Research Fellowships (2011-2012)
The Henry Moore Institute invites applications for the following fellowship programmes:
Research Fellowships are intended for artists, scholars and curators, working on historic and contemporary sculpture using the Institute?s library, archive of sculptors? papers and the collection of Leeds Art Gallery. Up to 4 fellows will be given the opportunity to spend a month in Leeds to develop their own research. With access to our resources and an on-going dialogue with the Institute staff, fellows are free to pursue their own interests in a supportive and stimulating environment.
Senior Fellowships are intended to give established scholars (working on any aspect of sculpture) time and space to develop a research project free from their usual work commitments. Up to 2 senior fellowships, for periods of between 4 to 6 weeks will be offered.
Both fellowships provide accommodation, travel expenses and a per diem. The Institute offers the possibility of presenting finished research in published form, as a seminar, or as a small exhibition. The fellowships are an integral part of the research programme, presenting fresh perspectives on the Institute?s collections, opening up new collaborative possibilities and furthering research into sculpture.

Join us for the second annual Inspired Art Project, where local artists create works based on the poetic words of Chicago public school children.
Find a poem which speaks to you, and create a piece inspired by the poem. In October we will host the Inspired Art Project show and auction, a fundraiser to support the America SCORES Chicago after school program. As an artist you may choose to receive a 20% commission on the final price of the piece, or you may choose to donate it back to America SCORES.
For more information on Inspired Art, visit our blog at http://inspiredartchicago.wordpress.com
Be sure to fill out the Artist Application in order to be considered for the event. http://inspiredartchicago.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/ia-2010-artist-application-form.pdf
