The Artist-in-Residence Program:
The Artist-in-Residence program provides local and visiting artists accommodation and studio facilities in Jerusalem for the creation, presentation, development and exchange of creative projects. This program serves as a meeting place for artists, facilitating creative encounters and discussion forums that are open to the public community, thus activating communication between Palestine and the international world. In order to further encourage this exchange, we invite the artists in-residence to contribute to the Al-Ma’mal Workshops program, working primarily with youth on creative projects.
We provide the artist with accommodation, materials and fabrication assistance, a living fee, the round trip ticket to Jerusalem, 24 hour access to a work space as well as access to a darkroom, workshop facilities and office equipment to enable artists to produce and present their work in Jerusalem. Furthermore, we engage local institutions from Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Ramallah in cooperative activities with relation to the artist-in-residence program.
Upon prior agreement with the artists, selected artworks produced are safeguarded and form the Collection of Al-Ma'mal Foundation, which we aspire to develop as the nucleus of a Contemporary Art Museum – Palestine (CAMP). |
