Deadline for applications: July 20
The Artist in Residence Program by Galeri Nasional Indonesia is a visual art activity program that provides opportunities to visual artists to settle, do research, make experiments, and create their artworks within the frame of Galeri Nasional Indonesia for a certain amount of time in activities ranging from work presentations, workshops, discussions, excursions, and publications of the study results to the public by means of artwork exhibitions and artist talks.
In 2014, Galeri Nasional Indonesia opens up new opportunities to visual artists who will take part in the residency to present their project proposals using an approach within the concept of “Cultural Interpretation and Dialog”, which involves how the residency participants respond, address, or give meaning to the phenomena and potentials of art and culture in Indonesia in general, and in big cities such as Jakarta, Yogyakarta and Bandung in particular, through works in contemporary modern visual art. Various social and cultural aspects with all kinds of problems that become parts of a city may be a source of inspiration for a work.
The artists’ residency program includes:
Excursion and research:

Along with the introduction process, the participants begin to conduct their research and creative experiments in order to support the process of work production.
Work Production:
The residency participants produce their works according to their respective project proposal, and they may also develop their work concepts based on the results of their research and experiments.
