"Call to Artists: Applications Open for 2002 Artist-in-Residence Workshop Program for Japanese Woodblock Printmaking "
2001-07-31 until 2001-11-30
Nagasawa Art Park
Chiyoda-ku Tokyo, , JP Japan

Applications are called from artists and printmakers from around the world who are interested in spending two months in Autumn 2002 studying and practicing Japanese techniques of woodblock printmaking in the beautiful Nagasawa area of Japan (Tsuna Town, Awaji Island).

The Nagasawa Art Park Artist-in-Residence, which has been held annually since 1997 with the support of various institutions including The Agency for Cultural Affairs, the Japan Foundation and Tsuna Town, provides one of the only opportunities for international artists to study the traditional techniques of woodblock printmaking in Japan. To date, a total of 19 artists have participated, and this year we will welcome 11 artists from countries such as diverse as Brazil, Iceland, Australia, the U.K. and India.

In 2002 the program will take place from 20 September to 20 November (precise dates to be confirmed). 6 to 8 artists will embark on their own (guided) production after receiving instruction from specialist carvers and printers. Artists will be invited on one of two separate plans, the Full-Support Plan (where all expenses, including airfare, will be paid for) or the Partial Support Plan (where a portion of expenses will be paid for by the artist). The deadline for applications is 30 November 2001. It is planned that successful applicants will be announced in late January 2002. Further details are available at the following: http://endeavor.or.jp/air/2002.htm
