ARTIST TO ARTIST INTERNATIONAL 2010

Visiting Arts announces participants for Artist to Artist 2010 Edition

Visiting Arts, in partnership with The Delfina Foundation, is delighted to announce the launch of Artist to Artist International 2010. Now in its sixth year, the scheme enables artists from the UK to invite artists from overseas for up to two weeks. The selected overseas artist will spend a week with the UK artist, visiting their studio, meeting key contacts, networking and exchanging ideas. Participants will spend up to two weeks together between 8-21 March 2010

The selected artists for 2010:

  • Ali Cherri will travel from Beirut, Lebanon to work with London based visual and performance artist Robin Deacon
  • Delta Arts Collective will host Egypt based artist Doa Aly in Portsmouth
  • Visual Artists Volkan Aslan and Iz Oztat will make the same journey from Istanbul, spending time with Western Alliance members Rebecca Weeks and Steven Paige sharing time between London and Cornwall
  • Christodoulos Panayiotou will travel from Limassol, Cyprus to work with Celine Condorelli in London

Artist to Artist provides a unique opportunity to bring together pairs of artists to initiate dialogues across international borders. The structure of the programme is tailored by the artists themselves and places emphasis firmly on research and the exchange of ideas rather than production.

For more information about the scheme or any of the artists, contact Adam Knights, Arts Projects Manager at adam.knights@visitingarts.org.uk
