Printmaking Residency
Remarque Print Workshop, Albuquerque, NM
Two residency sessions: February 4-9 and March 11-16, 2019
Four (4) artists accepted for each session
Remarque Print Workshop is offering an opportunity for eight printmakers (four for each of the two sessions) from across the state and country to come to sunny Albuquerque, NM to use our 100% non-toxic printmaking facility for one of our week-long residencies. Applicants are expected to have prior printmaking knowledge but need not be familiar with the non-toxic Akua inks and etching process.
Selected artists will have complete and 24 hour access to our 3,000 sq. foot studio including six Takach presses, use of our Akua inks, exposure unit, plate cutter, etching tanks etc. Artists are expected to purchase their own paper and plates and any extra materials. Remarque will not provide food or lodging, but we are happy to recommend one of many affordable Air Bnb rentals close by.
Our goal in offering this residency is to provide printmakers/ artists who may not have access to presses or studio equipment with the opportunity for an intense week of artistic production. We hope to bring four diverse printmakers together for a week, in order to foster their creative process and to forge new relationships with printmakers from different parts of the country/world. We are looking for printmakers who can work independently, but we also welcome artists who are still in the formative stage of their process! We would love to have a mix of experienced printmakers working side by side with younger artists. In addition, we entertain the possibility of having artists teach a workshop, or participate in a pop up show and/or artists talk.
In return, we ask only for artists to donate one print for our gallery.
To apply, please submit three to five examples of your artwork, a resume and a short bio. In addition, send us a short (less than one page) description of the project(s) you would like to work on while at Remarque. Please upload your images to Cafe. Resume, Bio, and statement can be emailed separately to: director@newgroundsprintshop.com.
