Artists currently based in France are invited to apply for a Residency as part of the Displaced Artists Initiative at Reid Hall, jointly supported by Columbia Global Centers | Paris and the Institute for Ideas and Imagination. This provides support for artists who have had to leave their countries of origin due to extreme circumstances (war, natural disaster, political oppression).
Reid Hall is home to the Columbia Global Centers | Paris, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination, the Columbia Undergraduate Programs, and Columbia’s Master in History and Literature programme. Located in the heart of Montparnasse, it partners with French and European institutions to engage students, faculty, alumni, and the general public across borders and disciplines.
The residency offers time and space to one artist working on a long-term project, from September 2024 to June 2025. The participant will be invited to contribute to the activities at Reid Hall. These can take the form of public lectures about their work, exhibits, podcasts, workshops, or conferences.
The year-long residency includes an annual stipend of 50,000 USD (paid in monthly instalments), administrative support, and a small office space at Reid Hall.
