The Rosalie Schweiker Award is a year-long support scheme for a recently graduated artist or artist group. The award will be tailored to fit the recipient's work and could for example involve a residency at Rosalie Schweiker's Space Station Sixty-Five Bursary Studio, a co- production, meetings on a regular basis or a field trip. The aim of the award is to encourage artists who • take their work serious, but don't take themselves serious • are interested in collaboration, not competition • find new uses and functions for art in society • are willing to take risks and go down the bumpy road • embrace the fact that art is a complex business • want to find alternatives to low-paid institutionalisation and cheap self-exploitation • enjoy playing with art world conventions • would benefit from being part of a diverse network of artists and other professionals interested in informal social gatherings. If you have any further questions or would like to visit Rosalie's studio before submitting your application, don't hesitate to contact [email protected] or visit www.rosalieschweiker.info Images (1) Awardees BBQ, summer 2013.
