Residency Unlimited

ARTISTS ALLIANCE INC. (AAI)

In 2011, Residency Unlimited (RU) and Artists Alliance Inc (AAI) joined forces in an effort to support one another’s core programs. Through this collaboration, RU provides studio visits and networking opportunities to the artists participating in AAI’s LES Studio Program, while AAI’s Cuchifritos Gallery + Project Space is given to RU for one month every summer for an exhibition of new work from their artists-in-residence.

In 2014 we are proud to expand this partnership by inviting RU’s international artists-in-residence to share the AAI studio space. We hope that this shared space will provide an informal collaborative working environment that will give artists from both organizations the chance to gain new insights into his or her work. RU artists occupying studios at AAI include: In 2013,  Avigail Talmor (Israel), and Bo Shook Yoon (South Korea); In 2014, Noilin O Kelly (Ireland), Franck Lesbros (France), Ta-Wei Huang (Taiwan), YinHua Chu (Taiwan), Lalie Douglas (Canada), Maria Lynch (Brazil), Rasmus Høj Mygind (Denmark), JAJA (Denmark), and Kristin McIver (Australia/USA), Katya Grokhovsky (NY); In 2015, Akiyasu Shimizu (Japan), Jeanette Lafontine (Norway/NY), Mei-Ling Liu (Taiwan), and HsiangLu Meng (Taiwan); in 2016, Kanako Hayashi (Japan), Phil America (USA), Ivan Gaete (USA), Ingrid Eggen (Norway), and Pouya Afshar (USA), Shurui Li (China), Diogo Pimentão (Portugal/UK), Leasho Johnson (Jamaica); and in 2017, Ai Makita (Japan), Tessa Mars (Haiti), Yun Han Chang (Taiwan), and Yoon Young Park (South Korea).

The AAI/RU partnership is a part of AAI’s Art (Inter)Actions program, which focuses on fostering collaborations with peer institutions and the community.
