To celebrate the 150th anniversary of Atelier 11 Cité Falguière – originally a studio for sculpture production – L’AiR Arts is inviting professionals working with sculpture and installation to apply for a fully funded one-month residency in 2025 in Paris, France. Partial scholarships and self-funded options in all art disciplines are also available.
Established in 1875, Atelier 11 is the last surviving studio of the world’s longest-running international artists’ residency still in operation. Once home-atelier of Gauguin, Foujita, Modigliani, Brancusi and Soutine, it hosted hundreds of French and international artists throughout the 19th and 20th centuries and it was recently recognised as a heritage site.
The Atelier 11 residency programme is designed for artists and cultural professionals who wish to develop their artistic research and/or project on a topic/theme of their choice.
To support the resident’s mobility, creative practice and professional development, the L’AiR Arts programme offers the following resources:
- Travel expenses to and from Paris (up to 500 EUR)
- Accommodation and workspace at Atelier 11
- Living expenses (1,000 EUR/month)
- Stipend towards research and/or production (500 EUR)
- Programming and event support (open studio, exhibition, talk, etc.)
- Networking and research support (relevant visits and meetings)
- Communications support (website, e-news, social media)
- One-year Association membership and opportunity to participate in other residency projects and events
Applications may be submitted on an ongoing basis with two deadlines per year: 31 October and 30 April.
