In 2014 CCA ŁAŹNIA would like to follow last year’s model and
invite 2 artists whose artistic practice will focus on the context of
Gdansk, and / or its district New Port.  We are looking for artists who
with the help of contemporary art practices undertake the discussion
around places perceived in a certain, stereotype way. Artist is encouraged
to reach out to the spaces in-between, out of the daily routine.

Currently New Port district is undergoing the process of revitalization
including all its negative and positive aspects. We are therefore looking
for works socially engaged and developed from a critical point of view.
The aspect of reaching out to new audiences plays an important factor.

The entire 3rd floor of the newly rebuilt former bathhouse building in New
Port district of Gdańsk is dedicated to artists. The building
consists also of a cinema, library and workshop space, that can be all
used by the artists according to their needs.  The living accommodation
provides potential for many types of Art based activities to take place
such as discussions, film screenings and social events. Artists Residency
shall culminate in a form of a final work in the shape chosen by the
artist.

Artists Residency is organised in 2 stages:
2 weeks research visit   + 2 months residency that follows
