live.make.share residency call - Hanoi

None

live.make.share is an artist-in-resident & exchange program developed from Hanoi, Vietnam under the umbrella of Undecided Productions. Applications for October-December 2018 are open.

We focus on the development of international & inter-regional relations by facilitating mobility opportunities for local practitioners as well as welcoming foreign artists & art managers to our living & working spaces.

We aim to create an environment for professional, personal & community development. Assist the production of artistic projects & encourage knowledge sharing. Our vision is to facilitate the dissemination of Vietnamese culture whilst nourishing the creative ecology with exterior knowledge, allowing for new perspectives globally.

Activities

The live.make.share program concerns contemporary artists, cultural organisers, writers & researchers. Though open to all forms of artistic production priority is given to projects in the fields of visual arts, contemporary dance and performance, music and writing. The welcoming of cultural organisers and researchers is also a main objective given the lack of art management training available nationally.

Deadline for submissions: 30th June

Applications are currently open for the period of 1/10/2018 - 31/12/2018, ​specific dates are open for the resident to suggest. Artists based outside of Hanoi are encouraged to propose a residency of a minimum of 1 month, though depending on the project shorter visits may be welcome. Dates outside of the 1/10/2018 - 31/12/2018​ timeframe will be considered but are not priority.

Fees

An application fee of 5 Euros per project is applicable and to be paid via Paypal (https://www.paypal.me/undecidedproductions/5) or bank transfer. Cost of the residency for 2018 per person is based on an average of 150-200 USD per month (for shared or private room), 400 - 500 USD for the three months. This goes towards basic structural running costs. It is in no way live.make.share’s policy to overcharge artists and priority is given to applicants who are eligible for grants to support their period of stay

Location

live.make.share is to be found in the village of Na, in the region of Bac Ninh, circa 40 minutes from central Hanoi. The village is colloquially known as Mai village, named after the much loved Bùi Hoài Mai painter and architect, who after arriving in the village over 20 years ago is responsible for many of the architectural and economic development of the area. His interest in the preservation of Vietnamese culture brought him to collaborate with the wave of Hanoian land buyers coming to the village, convincing them to recuperate traditional housing structures and renovating them to meet contemporary standards of comfort.

Take a look at the guidelines to see what is provided and how the artists are selected.
