Words: Charlotte Middleton
Bundanon last week announced the artists who have been awarded residencies at the art museum in NSW’s Shoalhaven region in 2023. Running for 30 years, the Artist in Residence program is the largest program of its kind in Australia and will next year support more than 150 artists.
The residency program spans visual and performing arts, literature, science, dance and music – providing important career opportunities for practitioners in these fields to develop their work in an inspiring environment. Artists and researchers are hosted in purpose-built studios and rehearsal spaces on the organisation’s secluded Homestead Site.
Rachel Kent, CEO said: “The Artist in Residence program supports Bundanon’s reputation as a global arts organisation at the forefront of contemporary cultural production. We are thrilled to be welcoming such a diverse range of artists to Bundanon in 2023.”
The establishment of Bundanon in 1993 represents one of the most significant acts of philanthropy in the history of the arts in Australia, and Arthur Boyd‘s vision for Bundanon to provide a creative space for contemporary Australian artists is at the heart of the residency program.
