There are currently three calls open from Gasworks in the UK, for a mid- or early-career Argentine artist based in Argentina, an early-career artist based in Brazil, or an early-career artist based in Central America (Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama).
The eleven-week, fully funded residency will take place at Gasworks in London from 7 April – 23 June 2025.
The residencies programme supports professional development, cultural exchange, and artistic experimentation. They host around 16 residencies each year, bringing artists from all over the world to London. All their residencies are self-led, non-prescriptive and process-based; they are about enabling artists to research and develop new work, engage with the city, and build their networks.
The organisers provide administrative, pastoral, and curatorial support throughout the residency, but they expect residents to be self-motivated, and to lead on the research and production of their own work.
The programme welcomes applications from contemporary visual artists of all ages, working in any discipline who have a moderate level of English.
The selected artist will receive:
- 24-hour access to a fully accessible private studio at Gasworks
- Single room accommodation in Gasworks’ Residency House
- Economy return flights and taxi transfers from the artist’s home country to London
- All visa costs and support with the visa application process
- A weekly stipend of 150 GBP to cover living expenses in London
- A materials budget of up to 800 GBP
- Local travel in London
Deadlines vary so please refer to each application guidelines.
