Artist-in-Residence (AIR) Program Rules and Guidelines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Artist in residence  (AIR) program is an opportunity provided by BACS (Biennale d\u2019Art Contemporain Sacr\u00e9) to four artists every year. The AIR program enables a guest artist to work in a new environment (the South of France), often away from the restrictions and pressures of their everyday lives. The residence place is a luxury Palace<\/strong> that is the headquarters of BACS<\/strong>, with comfortable accommodations. BACS is the patron of AIR operation. Artist residency is about providing the time and space for a guest artist to develop work and creatively explore new ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists are selected through a competitive application process. The length of a residency can vary from two weeks through one month. Artist residency includes a working space and accommodation. Artist residency is important because it provides opportunities for artists from around the world to spend time in a new atmosphere and environment. It supports cultural and artistic exchange, nurtures experimentation and new ideas, and supports research and the development of new work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
