TERRA SUMMER RESIDENCY IN GIVERNY 2010

Terra Foundation for American Art
June 15 - August 9, 2010

Established by the Terra Foundation for American Art, the Terra Summer Residency in Giverny provides artists and scholars with an opportunity for the independent study of American art within a framework of interdisciplinary exchange and dialogue, and in a site rich in cultural significance. Now in its tenth consecutive year, the 2010 residency is a flagship program of the recently created Paris research centre, the Terra Foundation for American Art Europe.


Each year, the Terra Foundation for American Art runs a summer residency program in Giverny offering ten summer fellowships to European and American doctoral students and artists. These fellowships are awarded to artists who have completed their studies at Masters level (or its equivalent) and doctoral students engaged in research on American art or transatlantic artistic exchange. Throughout the eight-week program, senior artists and art historians are also in residence to mentor the fellows and pursue their own work.

Terra Summer Residency fellows are awarded a stipend of $5,000, and artists receive an additional $200 for the purchase of materials.


For information on the conditions of eligibility, application forms and a description of the residency facilities, please consult the Terra Foundation for American Art website at http://www.terraamericanart.org, or contact the Terra Summer Residency offices at tsr@terraamericanart.org.
