Introduction
Beijing Inside-Out Art Museum (IOAM) is proud to re-start our Art Processionals Residency Program with a new vision. Located near the Western hilly regions as a non-profit art museum, IOAM is an ideal location for artists, curators, writers, scholars, historians and other art professionals to engage in intellectually-challenging practices. We encourage art professionals to further their thinking and practices by engaging actively with the local art scene and the intellectual world. Art professionals in residency are expected to participate in our internal training courses at the museum (attended by staff and other artists and curators from Beijing), present their projects (in forms of public presentations and articles, etc.) and take part in other local art events during their stay. IOAM Residency Program is organized and supervised by the Academic Department at the museum.
北京中间美术馆荣幸地宣布在新的视野下重启本馆的“艺术驻留项目”。中间美术馆是一家非营利机构，地处北京城西，近一年来，我们通过呈现严肃的历史探讨和前沿的国际讨论，邀请了大量在艺术和文化领域的前沿工作的艺术家、策展人、写作者、学者和历史研究者参与，成为激发思考和创作碰撞的引力场。在这一前提下，重新启动的驻留项目不仅在中国和国际范围内招募艺术家的参与，同样邀请艺术界不同角色的实践者，鼓励他们通过加入驻留而深化自身的创作思考，展开与本地艺术界与思想界的积极对话。同时，我们期待在此驻留的实践者参与我们的机构内部培训课程（通常会有美术馆团队和其他在北京生活的艺术实践者参与），并以公众讲座、文章发布等形式呈现他们在驻留期间的研究心得或作品。中间美术馆的驻留项目由学术部组织策划。
Eligible Applicants
IOAM Residency Program is open to international art professionals across disciplines. Yet, the selection process can be very rigorous. We encourage research-based proposals and unconventional practices, as well as artistic projects with local awareness. That said, all active and diverse approaches will be considered, and we would like to match two residency professionals with distinct backgrounds. We look forward to your proposals!
