Individual artists and the creative process are the heart of an arts community. Every year, the CityArtist Projects program provides funding to develop and present original work by Seattle artists, with different disciplines in alternating years. Funds may support new works, works-in-progress, or finished works, and all projects must include a public presentation. Funding awards range up to $10,000. In the 2007 funding cycle, we awarded $200,000 in grants to 31 artists working in the performing arts. The funded projects will involve 445 artists in 147 events throughout the city. Twenty-two of the 31 artist projects funded are first-time recipients, representing 71 percent of the awards, which range from $1,500 to $10,000. Sixty-five percent of the applicants' requests were fully funded with an average award of $6,451. The program received a record 118 applicants, a 103-percent increase in applications from the previous 2005 funding cycle for performing disciplines.

Individual Artists Program

http://www.nysca.org/public/guidelines/individual_artists/index.htm

The Individual Artists Program offers support for the creation of new work by New York State artists through artist-initiated projects in electronic media (video, sound art, installations, and new technologies) and film production, and the commissioning of new work by composers and theatre artists. Artists at various career stages are welcome to apply to this Program. Because the Council cannot make grants to individuals, each application to the Program must be sponsored by an eligible New York State nonprofit organization. First-time applicants are strongly encouraged to consult with Program staff well before the registration deadline. Other NYSCA discipline Programs offering support for the creation of new work include the Architecture, Planning and Design Program (Independent Projects category) and the Dance Program (Commissions category). This Program funds the New York Foundation for the Arts to provide artist fellowships in a variety of arts disciplines.

INFORMATION of the Artist in Residence Program in Hungary

bszechy@yahoo.com

deadline 3/25/2008 INFORMATION of the Artist in Residence Program in Hungary International Artist Residencies, Budapest/Balatonfured/A.I.R. Dates: Tuesday, May 20 - Thursday, June 12; Thuesday, June 17 - Thursday, July 10; Tuesday, July 15 - Thursday, August 7, 2008 Hungarian Multicultural Center, Inc. (HMC) is an award winning 501©3 non-profit organization dedicated to promoting international art and the understanding of world cultures, through high quality art exhibitions, cultural exchanges and related educational programs. Based in Dallas and Budapest, the organization operates throughout the world. Incorporated in 1990, HMC has already received awards for artistic merit from the Hungarian National Art Found and Embassy of the United States of America, Budapest among others. The HMC's projects (exhibitions, seminars, lectures, and educational programming) focus on international art works as embodiments of individual artist's visions, which are understood to be informed--to a varying extent--by personal, local and global cultural influences on the artist. AIR is an international meeting point for the arts. Its aim is to support and encourage contemporaryartistic creation, research and debate.

One of HMC's main activities is its Artist in Residence Program. The purpose of this program is to offer a platform to promote the exchange of artistic discourses from artists with different artistic backgrounds and from different geographical origins. The program is designed to encourage the exchange of ideas in order to broaden creative horizons. By encouraging this cultural diversity, we also hope to be able to update the debate between the artists themselves and between other professionals from the art world and the general public. HMC considers art as a dynamic social force that is capable of inspiring individuality and of defining groups. Our Artist in Residence Program also includes exhibitions, artist talks, film, workshops and other activities. HMC is planning and exchange program with other European Artist in Residence Program, so that the resident artists would be able to get in touch with other artistic centers. The current problems that have arisen from a lack of understanding of the varying cultures around the world today and it becomes even more apparent that HMC's projects address a number of very important needs. Visual art -- one of the few languages that transcends all boundaries -- offers a way to understand not only ourselves and one another, but it offers a venue for greatness, which must be supported if we as a civilization are to move forward. This is HMC's goal. After our 10 years anniversary we have published a book. The book includes all artists at the HMC's residencies, ntroductory by Dr. Geller Katalin-art historian. The book cost $16.00 + shipping and handling $4.00.

The HMC invites interested visual artists and writers to submit application for its residency programs in Hungary. Its principal focus is an international residency program to which artists from around the world are invited. The goal is to provide a supportive community with uninterrupted time to work. The residencies offer participants a unique opportunity to interact with other artists representing a variety of cultures and backgrounds. Accepted applicants are expected to speak and understand English. Approximately 12 - 12 (total 36) artists are invited for each section. The residence offers 2 beds per room/bath as living quarters. Studio, room, breakfast and lunch, transportation to Balatonfured, exhibition and site seeing are included in the cost $1,550 (EURO$1,050). Artist must share the studio with other artists. Exhibition: The location of the exhibition and the final final contents of donated work must be decided after due consultation between the program director and the artist. If successful applicant wish to be accompanied by family members or an assistant, it is necessary to consult with HMC beforehand. Expected artists are give at least one informal public slide presentation about their work during their stay at the HMC and to leave one piece of work made during the residency as a donation to the HMC. Exhibition will be arranged. Also, we are organizing an exhibition for the 2006, 2007 participants at Vizivarosi Gallery, Budapest in June-July 2008. While HMC does not provide funding for residencies, we are helping to facilitate the creation of programs and support the cost of the exhibitions.

We encourage the applicants to apply for a grant or scholarship and get in touch with official institutions.

ING DISCERNING EYE COMPETITION CALL FOR ENTRIES 2008

http://www.parkerharris.co.uk

NEW ARTISTS, NEW AUDIENCES The ING Discerning Eye invites artists to submit works for its annual exhibition in 2008. Sponsored by ING Wholesale Banking, this is an exhibition of small works independently selected by six prominent figures from the art world: two artists, two collectors and two critics. Among the selectors this year are television journalist and broadcaster, Jon Snow; head of National Programmes at the British Museum, Frances Carey; Royal Academician Fred Cuming and collector and former Chairman of Discerning Eye, Bob Benton. Each selector curates one section of the exhibition, drawing his or her own selection from works submitted by the public and the works of artists they have personally invited to exhibit.

Each selector is given their own hanging space within the gallery, so that all six sections have distinct personalities. The works of lesser-known artists therefore appear alongside those of established artists, awarded the stamp of approval by a fellow artist, collector, or critic. The uniqueness of having each work chosen by an eminent individual, unlike in a group selected show, has earned the exhibition an excellent reputation among art lovers and collectors alike. Each year, the exhibition helps to connect hundreds of new artists with new audiences. Painting, prints, drawing, photography and sculpture are accepted, the only criteria being, first, that works should not exceed 20 inches in their largest dimension and, secondly, all works must be for sale. Artists may submit up to six works. Regional collection points will be provided across the UK. The London submission days are 5 and 6 September 2008 at the Mall Galleries, SW1. Further information and entry forms are downloadable from www.parkerharris.co.uk. Alternatively send an SAE to The ING Discerning Eye, PO Box 279, Esher, Surrey, KT10 8YZ. For general information, telephone 01372 462190 or email DE@parkerharris.co.uk

coexist. And not just coexist, but communicate and create values. Through art, culture, tolerance, initiating a dialogue among nations, among various artistic expressions, a real dialog among real people. Culture communicates in the
