Connecting Africa's artists to residencies around the world. Call for application
The programme has been conceived to support artists from Africa who are provocative, innovative, relevant and highly engaged with both social issues and their art forms. AIR manifests through existing artist in residency partnerships around the world that are prepared to select an artist from a short list provided by the Africa Centre, created from a Continental search, for one of their 2012 or 2013 residencies. The costs of the residency and roundtrip airfare are included in each residency award made as part of this programme. The residencies are available to all types of artists, but each residency on offer has different durations, structures and requirements. They are taking applications between 1 April and 15 June 2012. Application Methods are available on-line.
