France: Palais-Royal OpenAir - Artist in Residency Program

Overview

The Palais-Royal OpenAir project was triggered by a desire to encourage young European artists by offering them a creative residency in a motivating and prestigious site in the heart of Paris.

Both emerging and confirmed professional artists from the European countries selected for the 2010 edition are invited to propose their projects. Candidates must be under 40 years of age and must work in the field of the plastic arts (painting, drawing, engraving, sculpture, photography, etc.). Students may apply on condition that they are in their final year of arts school.

Palais-Royal OpenAir is a competition which offers the winner the opportunity of a residency and a personal exhibition at the Peter’s Friends gallery. The exhibition is intended to be the starting point of the residency. The artists are required to present a project that they have conceived specifically for the occasion or, if applicable, their recent works, on condition that these constitute a pertinent and coherent project as a whole. During the residency, the artists are also encouraged to develop a creative project relating to their artistic research. The theme is free. In both cases, the works must take the constraints imposed by the gallery's layout into consideration.

The works exhibited will be offered for sale (the Peter's Friends gallery will take a commission). Works conceived during the residency may be presented in association with partners from the artist’s country of origin.
