With the aim of introducing a range of domestic and international Microresidence programs and providing opportunities for information exchange and networking, the Microresidence Meeting will hold a two-day meeting on February 9 and 10 at Koshoji Temple in Kyoto. The event is cosponsored by the Artist-Run Alliance.
Taking place in a historical temple in Kyoto, the meeting will consist of presentations and a workshop on Day 1 in which domestic and international artists will have the opportunity to consult with Microresidence directors from Japan and overseas with the aim of fostering new networks and expanding artists’ horizons. It is hoped this will lead to new opportunities for domestic and international artists to participate in microresidencies in Japan and overseas. The second day will consist of an optional program, including an early Zen Meditation and breakfast at Koshoji Temple, and a guided tour of Nishin-jin district.
The Microresidence Meeting 2019 has been organized to coincide with the Res Artis Meeting Kyoto, held from February 6 to 8, 2019. Participants in the Micoresidence Meeting are also invited to join the Res Artis Meeting (Registration fee required. For more details, please see the following website: http://www.resartis.org/en/meetings/upcoming_meetings/february_2019_-_kyoto_japan/programme/) The Microresidence Meeting will also be leading a workshop in Res Artis Meeting to discuss the role of microresidencies in society.
Multi Layered Identitiesとは、複数層のアイデンティティを自覚する参加アーティストによる、レジデンシー及びに展覧会を介しての存在価値を見つめ直すプロジェクトである。ポスト・グローバリズムの現代において、多様な価値観の許容を可能とする地域社会の重要性は再認識されている。アーティストもまた、変容する時代を映す鏡として、地域文化への関わり方を問い直す。このプロジェクトは、参加アーティストにとっての拠り所としてのアイデンティティの回帰であり、また、地域社会にとっての「らしさ」の再認識の旅路である。
