I-Park
Site-Responsive Art Residency & Biennale Call 2021

I-Park, East Haddam, CT (U.S.),is both an open-air and a closed-studio laboratory for individual creative pursuits in the fields of music composition/sound art, the visual arts, architecture, moving image, creative writing and landscape/garden/ecological design. From insights developed in the laboratory setting, it also develops and sponsors specially-themed cross-disciplinary projects of cultural significance – and brings these discoveries to light in the public domain.

I-Park supports these individual and collaborative investigations through its international artists-in-residence program, the aesthetic engagement of its natural and built environments and with on-site exhibitions, performances and collegial exchanges.

Since its founding in 2001, I-Park has sponsored almost a thousand fully-funded artists’ residencies.

We are pleased to announce that it will be hosting its signature Site-Responsive Art Residency & Biennale in 2021. The three-week residency will run from August 30 to September 20, 2021 and will culminate in a public opening of the Biennale on September 18, 2021. The residency will be devoted exclusively to the 6 – 7 artists/designers invited to create new works for the exhibition.

I-Park views site-responsive art as a multi-disciplinary, multi-sensory field – at its most impactful when the installations are developed and experienced in-situ. Artists/designers from the following creative disciplines are encouraged to apply: visual arts, music composition/sound art, language arts, architecture, new media and landscape/garden/ecological design. For 2021, all works must include a substantial physical installation that will be remain in good condition through the autumn of 2022.

Selected projects will receive a three-week residency and $3,500 commission fee.
Application Deadline: January 18, 2021
Application fee: $35

A stipend of $3,500 and travel reimbursement will be paid for each invited project. Food and lodging are provided. If you have questions, contact info@i-park.org, 860-873-2468.

deadline: January 18th, 2021
