The Rijksakademie residency in Amsterdam is a space for the development of ideas for emerging professional artists. Resident artists work in an individual studio for one to two years on research, experiment, projects and production. Next to technical facilities there are a library and an artists' documentation centre. The Rijksakademie also organizes the Prix de Rome, manages historical and contemporary collections and makes them accessible by way of publications and presentations through RijksakademiePORTAAL.

Global Culture Center, a non-profit contemporary artists’ organization
established in 1990 in Japan, and recognized as a non-profit organization in
France since 1995, is composed of and entirely administrated by artists of
diverse tendencies and all nationalities. We are launching new projects in
New York City, and seeking New York artists and a curator who can work with
us. The theme of New York projects is ‘Healing’ and we have participant
artists for this project from Japan, France, and
San Francisco. For further information please contact Yoko at
