Košice Artist in Residence
The Artist Exchange Program of the Budapest Gallery and KAIR Košice Artist in Residence invite visual or interdisciplinary artists from Slovakia to take part in the two-month residency in Budapest, Hungary.
The Artist-in-Residence program (AIR) of the Schafhof – European Art Forum Upper Bavaria and KAIR Košice Artist in Residence invite visual artists from Slovakia to participate in the two-month residency in Freising, Germany. The Open Call for the residency at Schafhof – European Center for Art Upper Bavaria is open for visual artists from all fields.
In the video installation High Fever, visual artist Eunju Hong presents a non-linear story of the mining industry and its associated mythologies and superstitions. Blending two worlds, she reveals the history of humanity’s desire for knowledge of the geological and dark depths of the earth through period mining mechanical machines.
Yulia Manukian’s research during her residency at KAIR focuses on the period of interwar modernism in Košice. She focuses on two levels of the city’s heritage: the architecture of the future and the promotion of a creative national and local identity.
A series of drawings and oil paintings by the Polish visual artist Beata Rojek presents a story in progress whose formal and symbolic starting point comes from the woods. The artist’s frequent presence in the surrounding forests of Košice becomes a tangible, present space, a source of events, and a network of emotional experiences.
As part of the artist’s two-month residency, we invite you to a drawing workshop, where together we will try to break the abortion taboo.
