Eastern European Residency Exchange
Through an artist residency program, Art in General’s Eastern European Residency Exchange (EERE) gives artists an opportunity to create a new work in a new context, and to meet and interact with art communities in Eastern Europe and New York City.
Initiated in 2001, the EERE consists of a unique artist residency program at Art in General offered to Eastern European artists nominated by Art in General’s partnering institutions: Center for Contemporary Art Ujadowzski Castle in Warsaw, Poland and the Croatian Association of Artists (HDLU) in Zagreb, Croatia. In 2010, a new partner site will join the EERE. As part of the EERE, these museums and galleries also host New York-based artists for a two-month residency in their institutions.
The selection process for the EERE program is based solely on nominations. This nomination process involves artists, curators, and arts professionals invited by Art in General, along with curators and staff of each EERE partner.
