The European Investment Bank (EIB) Institute is pleased to announce the 2018 edition of its Artists Development Programme (ADP), looking for TWO visual artists (born after 1 January, 1983) from Cyprus, Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania and Malta.

The ADP offers emerging European visual artists a 5-6 week-long residency in Luxembourg, enabling them to develop their practice and create a new (body of) work(s), boosted by the mentorship of a high-profile established artist. In 2018, the recipients will each be mentored by acclaimed British artist Callum Innes.

 

Eligibility

– Being born after 1 January, 1983
– Nationality of Cyprus, Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania and Malta – Fluency in English

 

Budget and duration

The EIB Institute will cover the artists’ travel costs to and from Luxembourg (residency), and to and from Callum Innes’s studio (before the start of the residency). The artists will receive a stipend (EUR 100 per day to cover living costs and production) and will be provided with a living/working space. Upon starting the residency the artists will be given an additional production budget of EUR 500 and at the end of the residency will receive a success fee of EUR 1 000 each, provided they have produced an artwork. The residency in Luxembourg will take place in May/June 2018.

Upon completion of the residency, the EIB may acquire the artwork(s) produced on-site from the artists.
