Isla de Crear is a creative centre, combining a range of different disciplines in order to explore creating and crafting in a new method, away from commercial constraints or industry guidelines, based on the principles of the Fantasism manifesto. We are open to people of all ages and backgrounds, and only ask that you have a keen interest in pro-actively seeking the strange and unique connections, through interdisciplinary and international collaboration.

We are purposefully keeping the theme as broad as possible, and encourage you to think as tangentially as possible. We are not looking for the same ol’ works, but instead want to encourage all our visiting creatives to challenge themselves into doing new things and exploring new forms.

We are particularly interested in people who wish to work with found objects and repurpose them, as our junk yard is full of materials, but we are open to all forms of creations: visual, performative, audible, theoretical, scholarly, written, etc.

The A.I.R. Fellowship Program supports underrepresented and emerging women and non-binary artists in New York City. Each year, six artists are awarded a year-long fellowship to develop and exhibit a project at A.I.R. Gallery.

The A.I.R. Fellowship Program was established in 1993 by former artist member Stephanie Bernheim in order to support underrepresented and emerging women and non-binary artists in New York City. Each year, six artists are awarded a year-long fellowship to develop and exhibit a project at A.I.R. Gallery.

In the last 30 years, the A.I.R. Fellowship Program has given more than 100 artists the opportunity to have their first solo exhibition in New York City. This program encourages artistic experimentation and rigor by providing a space where feminist historical precedence and intergenerational dialogue are at the forefront. Essential to this process are a series of professional development workshops, close collaboration with an A.I.R. artist-mentor, and scheduled studio visits through the year—including one with a selection panelist.

More Art's Engaging Artists Commission is an opportunity for early career artists focused on the incubation and commissioning of a public art project and carries an $8,000 award to realize the project, plus curatorial, conceptual, budgetary, and logistical mentorship. This year's program will focus on such interlinked issues facing New Yorkers such as: economic and racial inequality, the housing crisis, mass incarceration, and climate justice.

This is an exciting opportunity for an emerging artist to come and live and work at East Quay in Watchet, Somerset, for up to two weeks in early 2024. We are looking for an energetic, hands-on individual to create artwork in Pod 5, which can inspire our visitors and guests throughout 2024.
Eligibility: We want our organisation to be representative of all sections of society and welcome applications from everyone. Practitioners from any creative background are welcome to apply and we are open to proposals from artists working in all mediums. We seek artwork that creates an immersive atmosphere within the space, engaging physically and conceptually with the surroundings. We welcome wall-based proposals but are also open to 3D concepts and ideas.

Why do we create art? For what purpose? What drives us?

This question has perplexed humanity for decades, yet a definitive answer eludes us.
Are we motivated by the idea of fame and wealth, or is there a deeper calling?

From the dawn of civilization, individuals have sought to leave their imprint multitude ways, on cave walls, papyrus, etc. In ancient times, a cave painting wasn't shared widely like today's viral content, it was often witnessed by just a few. Thus, the intrinsic urge to craft art surely goes beyond mere pursuit of riches and acclaim.

Beyond the raw need to express and offer a window into our inner world, we yearn for others to discern the silent truths of our existence. Like the generations that preceded us, we aspire to leave behind a legacy and simultaneously, we can't help but contemplate: will the world recognize our sacrifices, the depth of our love, and the passion that fueled our creations, or will they be lost in the eternity of time?

This exhibition aims to spotlight the essence behind each artistic creation, underscoring that every piece tells a unique tale awaiting discovery.

Excitingly, the globally celebrated art critic, Tabish Khan, will grace our opening event on the 10th of November, delivering an insightful speech on the exhibition's theme.

Tabish Khan, a fervent advocate for making art universally accessible, is a renowned art critic entrenched in London's vibrant art scene. As the visual arts editor for Londonist and a regular contributor to Culture Whisper, he's a trusted voice, offering weekly top exhibition insights for FAD through his discerning column "What's Wrong with Art". Tabish's commitment extends beyond critique, he's a trustee for ArtCan, City & Guilds London Art School, and Discerning Eye — organizations dedicated to uplifting artists and curating seminal exhibitions.

In an ever increasingly digital world, we often find ourselves seeking ways to unplug, searching for the tangible, the analog, something tactile and physical we can touch and hold with our own hands, something to keep and cherish as a memento, as ephemera, something to lose, something to find, something to give and share with a loved one like a secret.

And, much like the soothing sounds of a pencil scratching on paper, there’s just something about the feel of flipping through the pages of a good book.

What we’re looking for:

Visual art (all mediums and forms are welcome! examples:)

- Drawing
- Painting
- Photography
- Printmaking
- Collage
- Etc.!

Poetry

Prose
- All forms are welcome, including non-fiction such as personal essays, anecdotes, letters, etc.!

There’s no theme; submit your best work! (But if that’s too broad for you and you’d like some guidance, here’s a theme Artists on the Lam has always been obsessed with: Dreams. Interpret that however you wish.)

There’s no application fee! It’s free to submit to the zine!

Ready to apply? Complete the steps at http://www.artistsonthelam.com/zine-open-call (includes an optional additional opportunity for artists in the form of an online art show)

The residency program is designed to offer artists the time and space to develop their creative practice, to further connect with rich cultures throughout New Mexico and to bring their artwork and experience to the public through engagement and participation.

While in residence, artists can access the Lincoln Historic Site for research and study. If selected, artists must agree to participate in interviews, photo sessions, video recording, and exit interviews to document the artist-in-residence's process and progress. This information will be entered into New Mexico Arts archives to serve as a permanent public record.
