These guidelines simply offer insight into what has worked well in our village setting: Quality of artistic work is our primary consideration Spanish language skills are helpful for connecting with our welcoming local community Our village neighbors are wonderfully open-minded, and we tend to favor art that resonates with or is accessible to the local community We find residencies of 2 weeks to 2 months work particularly well At the end of your residency we encourage artists to do an exhibition or a talk about their work, however this is not obligatory and only if the artist chooses to do so. Application information As you will become part of our small mountain community, we’d like to introduce you properly to our village neighbors. Please submit your application as a single A4 page (physical or digital format) that includes: A brief personal introduction telling us about yourself An artist statement describing your practice What you hope to achieve or work on during your residency A photo of yourself If applicable, a photo of one of your artworks This format allows us to share your introduction with the local community and helps everyone get to know you before your arrival. We accept applications in English, Spanish, French, Italian, German and Dutch. Following our initial review, selected applicants will be invited to a Zoom call where we can meet each other personally and ensure we’re a good mutual fit.

The proposal must demonstrate a precise relationship to one of the three designated sites and show how the work will function as a permanent outdoor installation. The selection committee will assess conceptual clarity, originality, site-specificity, scale, structural feasibility, public safety, sustainability, maintenance requirements, and the experience offered to viewers. Artists should study the site documentation before selecting a location and make every element of the proposal, from materials to installation requirements, support that choice. The Foundation requests a detailed production budget only from shortlisted finalists. Join the network to access the Strategy Coach Notes for this opportunity. About the Mamidakis Art Prize 2027 The G. & A. Mamidakis Foundation established its annual Art Prize in 2019 following three decades of activity supporting contemporary art and visual culture. The program commissions a new site-specific artwork that becomes part of the Foundation’s collection and remains permanently displayed in Agios Nikolaos. For 2027, the Foundation is seeking a large-scale sculptural installation designed as a distinctive outdoor landmark. The call is international and includes practices ranging from conventional sculpture and installation to sound, ecological art, land art, mixed media, natural-material construction, and work connecting artistic practice with the environment. Applicants must propose a new and original artwork for one of three potential sites identified by the Foundation. The selected artist will develop and produce the work between February and May 2027, with the completed installation scheduled to be unveiled in June 2027. The artist remains personally responsible for every stage of the work’s realization while collaborating closely with the Foundation’s Artistic Director and production team. The final artwork enters the G. & A. Mamidakis Foundation collection. Its construction, installation, and completion will be documented and communicated through the Foundation’s website, newsletter, social platforms, press activity, and publications. What Is Offered - €15,000 prize for the selected artist - 30% of the prize paid upon acceptance and assignment of the work - Remaining 70% paid following final delivery - Construction expenses covered according to a mutually agreed budget - Transportation and installation expenses covered - One return ticket to Crete for the selected artist - Accommodation and meals at Minos Palace - Transportation between Heraklion Airport and Minos Palace - One research and preparation visit lasting up to ten days - Collaboration with the Artistic Director and Foundation team - Guidance with materials, technical knowledge, production, and installation - Exhibition organization, press promotion, interviews, and publications - Possible endorsement letters supporting future funding applications Artists must issue a legal invoice or receipt for the prize and all expenses connected to constructing the artwork. Artistic duos may apply, although the €15,000 prize and construction budget will be shared between the two artists. Who Should Apply This opportunity is intended for visual artists capable of developing a permanent outdoor work at a substantial architectural or environmental scale. Strong applicants will have a practice grounded in sculpture, installation, sound installation, mixed media, land art, environmental art, ecological art, or natural materials. The proposal should respond directly to the physical and conceptual conditions of one designated site rather than treating Crete as a general backdrop. Artists must also be prepared to address engineering, fabrication, transportation, installation, safety, weather exposure, long-term maintenance, and public interaction. Applications may be completed in Greek or English. Mamidakis Art Prize 2027 Timeline - Application Deadline: December 30, 2026, at 23:59 Greek time - Finalist Communication: By February 15, 2027 - Production Period: February through May 2027 - Public Unveiling: June 2027 - Applicants who have not received a personal email by February 15, 2027, have not been shortlisted as finalists. Why This Opportunity Matters The Art Prize combines a direct €15,000 award with the institutional commitment required to realize a permanent outdoor work. The Foundation covers agreed construction, transportation, and installation expenses instead of requiring the artist to absorb those costs from the prize. Travel, accommodation, meals, research time, technical guidance, publicity, and publication support extend the value of the opportunity further. The permanent placement also distinguishes it from temporary exhibition calls. Artists should understand that the completed artwork enters the Foundation’s collection and that the award requires the selected proposal to be fully produced and delivered. Apply - Deadline: December 30, 2026 - Official Link: https://gnamamidakisfoundation.org/en/vraveio-technis/ - Strategy Coach Notes: https://www.patreon.com/pformart/posts/eur15-000-art-in-171887557 Explore More Opportunities Explore more artist grants, residencies, commissions, fellowships, and international open calls at ContemporaryPerformance.com.

Expanded Photography Research Residency Japan 2027–2028

Until Dec 30, 2026

FotoCreativaBA

EXPANDED PHOTOGRAPHY RESEARCH RESIDENCY Japan | 2027–2028 Deadline: 30 Dec 2026 Country: Japan The Expanded Photography Research Residency is a hybrid international program organized by FotoCreativaBA in collaboration with IDEA R LAB (directed by Hiroko Ohtsuki in Kurashiki, Japan). The platform connects expanded photography, visual observation, material processes, local contexts, and global cultural exchange. The programming is structured into three distinct phases: Phase 1 (12-Month Online Laboratory): Shifting away from heavy weekly screen time, this phase prioritizes autonomous processes, deep reading, and monthly theoretical/creative triggers linking contemporary expanded photography with Japanese aesthetics (e.g., Wabi-Sabi, Kintsugi, the Ma interval, and the Provoke movement). It includes monthly 1-on-1 curatorial reviews, collective critiques, and guest lectures. Phase 2 (1-Month On-Site Residency): Fieldwork at IDEA R LAB focused on studio work, site-specific research, and material investigation using local industrial waste. Phase 3 (Closing & Public Presentation): Final project reviews, open studios, process-based exhibitions, or activations both online and at the FotoCreativaBA gallery. The program is explicitly conceived as a space for exploration, learning, and transcultural dialogue rather than a purely production-oriented residency. Duration of residency The complete hybrid program lasts 13 months in total. This includes a 12-month online laboratory (March 2027 – February 2028), followed by a 1-month on-site stay in Kurashiki, Japan. Artists can choose their preferred month for the in-person phase from three available slots in 2028: March, April, or May (with 3 artists hosted per month, totaling 9 artists). Accommodation Artists receive full accommodation during their 1-month on-site stay in Japan, to ensure a comfortable stay while interacting with the residency peers and the local community. Disciplines, work equipment and assistance Eligible Disciplines: Open to visual artists, contemporary photographers, and researchers from anywhere in the world interested in expanded photography, material processes, and transcultural dialogue. The program is fully bilingual (Spanish/English friendly). Work Equipment & Resources: Artists have access to specialized workspaces and a unique framework for creative reuse. This includes access to local industrial waste materials and discarded objects to be used as creative media, alongside guidance on collecting, documenting, and conceptually reinterpreting these elements. Assistance & Mentorship: The program provides continuous curatorial training. This includes monthly 1-on-1 curatorial feedback and mentorship sessions with Program Director Natheim, as well as on-site coordination, local integration, and expert facilitation by Hiroko Ohtsuki in Japan.Studio / Workspace Artists have full access to the dedicated studio facilities and workspaces at IDEA R LAB. The workspace is shared among the 3 artists in residence each month, fostering a collaborative learning environment. It is designed to support material experimentation, site-specific research, and direct dialogue with the local environment and the Kurashiki community.Fees and support As a self-funded international platform, the residency relies on a program fee with the following structure: Fee Range / Investment: An initial enrollment fee of USD 360 (payable only upon acceptance to secure the spot), followed by an installment plan of 12 monthly payments of USD 240 during the online phase. What is included: 12 months of specialized online curatorial training and regular feedback, specialized seminars, use of shared studio facilities, community living support, Wi-Fi, full on-site accommodation in Japan (room, linens, breakfast, and dinner), and a formal exhibition opportunity to showcase work at the FotoCreativaBA gallery in Buenos Aires, Argentina. What is NOT included: Airfare to Japan, personal expenses, and personal art materials. Expectations towards the artist Artists are expected to actively participate in both the online development phase and the on-site research. Upon completion of the residency, taking part in the closing activation is an integral part of the program. This includes participating in final project reviews, open studios, process-based exhibitions, or practical activations. Furthermore, artists are expected to participate in a collective presentation or public discussion, which will take place either online or physically at the FotoCreativaBA gallery. Application information How to apply: Interested visual artists, photographers, and researchers must complete the official online application form before the deadline. Selection Process: Applications will be evaluated by the curatorial committee based on the candidate’s interest in expanded photography, material experimentation, and intercultural research. Selected artists will be notified directly via email and must pay the initial enrollment fee to secure their placement. Application Deadline: December 30, 2026. Inquiries: [email protected]
