ARTIST’S RESIDENCY 

Call for Entries: OPEN BODIES RESIDENCY

The Fruitmarket Gallery and Despina are pleased to announce a new collaborative project, following last year’s participation in British Council Brazil’s UK-BR Exchange Programme. 

Open Bodies is a residency programme designed jointly by Despina and The Fruitmarket Gallery, with support from the British Council and Creative Scotland. It seeks Scottish-based artists who make performance and whose work engages with gender and/or sexuality.

The programme is in two parts. The residency will take place at Despina in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in September 2018. The selected artists will participate in a range of cross-cultural activities such as public talks, sharing of work, studio visits and exhibition tours. Part two of the programme welcomes the artists back to The Fruitmarket Gallery to participate in the Open Out programme in Edinburgh in February 2019.
