New York

Amant provides a stimulating and flexible environment for international practitioners to conduct their artistic research in New York for a period of three months.

The residency comprises individual non-residential studios, a communal area with a kitchen, and access to outdoor spaces within Amant’s campus. Amant provides roundtrip economy transport via flight, train or bus to NY, travel health insurance, a monthly MetroCard, and a monthly allowance of $3,000.00 USD to partially offset the costs of research, accommodation, and day-to-day expenses. Amant also provides the opportunity to benefit from the expertise of the artistic team at Amant and New York City’s cultural and academic community.

Please be advised that the Amant studios are not residential, and artists are expected to find their own housing accommodations.

Our goal is to foster process-oriented practices and multiple forms of knowledge, and the programs developed for the residents (and in some cases to the general public) therefore take on different formats and temporalities. We organize studio visits with local cultural producers and local artists, meetings with special guests, and visits to archives, museums, and cultural organizations relevant to our residents’ practices.

Each New York Amant Studio & Research resident gets the opportunity to organize a For Your Reference evening in which they share their way of thinking, interpreting, and sensing.
