Residence program
Stanley Artist in Residence Program (SARP) starts year 2008, which aims to connect its artists and curators to the local art community, while connecting the local art community with contemporary art practice from all over the world.
While London may well be the world's epicenter of contemporary art practice and market, the glut of resources and opportunities, which attract the art immigrant, are precisely the factors, which can be alienating and frustrating.
SARP is a residency tailored to suit the practical needs of the visiting artist/curator by providing space in which to produce as well as addressing the magnitude of the world's art capital. The program prides itself on providing an infrastructure, which accelerates integration and interaction with the host culture and in the course of its development, has become a catalyst for introduction, presentation, connection, exposure and dissemination.
The dynamic of SARP is a programming hybrid conceived to facilitate genuine exchange, specifically its Guest Critic Series and three exhibitions includes one solo show. The Guest Critic Series enables one-on-one studio visits for dialogue and critical feedback with distinguished professionals from UK and international art worlds. The Exhibitions attract not only professionals, but a wider audience of art enthusiasts. In addition, a continual flow of international art traffic passes through the program, making impromptu studio visits and meeting with the artists and curators.
