Artist opportunities

NEXT at Christie's: London 2022 Artist Open Call is an exhibition of works by the next generation of artists, taking place in January 2022 and hosted at Duke Street Gallery, Christie's, London. Their concept addresses the absurdity of contemporary reality by letting the Absurd infiltrate the exhibition's artistic and curatorial expression. In doing so, it aims to collectively envision alternative modes of meaning-making. (Deadline: 9 November 2021)

Art Explora & Cité internationale des arts Residency Program The Art Explora Foundation together with Cité internationale des arts co-construct a unique residency program for French and international artists and researchers. The program invites candidates to propose a project that questions contemporary issues, including new technologies, the links between art and science, and environmental and social issues. Programs are open to artists and researchers of all nationalities, with no age limit. Eligible artists are those who can justify a minimum of five years of professional activity. (Deadline: 15 November 2021)
