RICEFIELD VISUAL ARTS RESIDENCY OPPORTUNITY, Glasgow
Deadline for applications: Monday 29th June 2009
Three-Month Residency: September 1st – November 27th 2009
Ricefield aims to:
• Contribute to the diversity of Scotland’s arts by promoting Chinese arts and culture to as wide an audience as possible, encouraging multiracial understanding and breaking down the barriers of perception.
• Act as a platform for visual artists, craftspeople, curators, musicians, performing artists and writers of Chinese descent on which to practice, develop, promote and exhibit their work.
• Challenge, inform and add to contemporary Scottish arts by introducing works created in a different culture, of a different aesthetic.
• Engage with the Chinese communities in Scotland, encouraging participation in the arts through providing the opportunity to celebrate and explore their cultural identity.
Ricefield is committed to equal opportunities. We recognise that artists of Chinese descent are underrepresented in the UK. We are committed to addressing this by creating and nurturing opportunities for visual artists of Chinese descent to practice and promote their work. The residency scheme is covered by Sections 35, 37 and 38 of the Race Relations Act (1976) as amended.
Visual Arts Residency
This three-month residency creates an exciting new opportunity for an artist to focus on the development and experimentation of their own practice & ideas, and to create new work.
After the residency there will be a final exhibition in Ricefield where new work created during the period will be shown.
The artist will have sole responsibility for all artistic elements of the residency and final exhibition.
During the three months, the artist will be required to take part in a minimum of 8 hours’ outreach work to make their work more available to the public. Arrangements for the nature of this outreach will be tailored to the artist’s own practice and needs, and assistance from Ricefield staff and volunteers can be guaranteed.
Facilities, resources and professional development opportunities offered with the residency will include:
• Sole use of Ricefield’s gallery as workspace between 1st September and 27th November 2009. The artist will have the opportunity to make use of Ricefield’s window to exhibit work in progress
throughout the residency.
• Mentoring
• Networking and contact opportunities with key individuals, arts & cultural organisations and Chinese communities in the UK and with Ricefield’s contacts abroad.
• Curatorial support for the final exhibition and promotion and organisation of private view.
• Opportunity to have input into arts development at Ricefield
• Access to the Glasgow School of Art library
• Membership to SPIN: Glasgow
There will be a resident’s fee of £5000. We regret that accommodation cannot be provided, but
assistance in finding accommodation will be offered.
A materials allowance of £750 will also be given.

2009 William H. Johnson Prize
Deadline : July 31, 2009
Applications for the 2009 William H. Johnson Prize are now available online at http://www.whjohnsongrant.org
Please note that the due date for all applications is July 31, 2009, several months earlier than in past years. Applicants are advised to take note of the change so that they do not miss the deadline.
The 2009 William H. Johnson Prize is 25,000 USD and the winner will be announced in September 2009.
The William H. Johnson Foundation for the Arts is a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization that seeks to encourage African American artists early in their careers through its annual award, The William H. Johnson Prize. Early career African American artists who work in painting, photography, sculpture, printmaking, installation and/or new genre are eligible to apply.
William H. Johnson, an African American artist born in Florence, South Carolina in 1901, is the namesake of the Foundation. He moved to New York as a young man to study at the National Academy of Design, and though he was acknowledged as the most talented artist in his class of 1926, he was passed over for a traveling scholarship, most likely because of his race. Rather than see Johnson struggle in the United States, his teacher, Charles Hawthorne, gave Johnson 1000 USD so that Johnson could travel to Europe. This act of faith and generosity was pivotal in Johnson's life, for it provided the seed from which his career flourished.
In the same spirit, the William H. Johnson Prize is intended to encourage the best artists working today. Past Johnson Prize Winners include Laylah Ali (2002); Nadine Robinson (2003); Kori Newkirk (2004); Dave McKenzie (2005); Edgar Arceneaux (2006); Rodney McMillian (2007); and Jennie C. Jones (2008).
