Athens Art Residency at SIILK Gallery

Category:
Eligibility:

We here at SIILK GALLERY are looking for artists from all walks of life around the world for our 2022 residency program.
With the success of our current gallery throughout 2019/20 we have launched a new exhibition space in 2021 in the Athens artists quarter, Metaxourgeio. This has given us the opportunity to transform the upper spaces above the gallery into a residency space, self contained studio and exhibition space.
The residency will consist of a 4 week running program with accommodation where you can live and work from the Siilk Building in Athens, Greece. Use the mezzanine level of the gallery for a show for the 4 weeks or use it like an open studio, run workshops, talks, utilize the space in whichever ways you want.
At the end of each 4 weeks there will be an opening night showcasing the works produced in that time featured at the main Silk Gallery space for an additional 4 weeks. Your works will also be featured in our online gallery for the new website of our mother gallery - www.siilkgallery.com. We will also do a feature / interview with you leading up to the residency.
We can supply any documents to accompany any external funding sources the artists may apply for.
How the residency work:
4 week accommodation at Sillk Residents Gallery
Private view/press viewings and other publicity
Design and printing of invitations, mail out and social media invites
Photography of work for catalogue, website, press and online store
Featured work & artist information on www.siilkgallery.com and social medias

4 week long exhibition at the main Silk Gallery premises following the residency.
Payment & Pricing:
The price for the 4 week residency program including accommodation is €650 inclusive. This will be 4 weeks accommodation and full use of the space and a following 4 week long exhibition of works produced during your stay. If artists wish to stay longer this can be discussed.
We take 0% commission on works sold throughout the duration of the artists stay.
