There is an age-old notion of the artist’s practice as a solitary one in which creativity is born over the course of long hours in the studio. Barring a nomadic or collaborative practice, there is truth to this romantic vision—artists do often work alone—yet there is a constant companion inherent in the creative process: the studio itself. The International Studio & Curatorial Program (ISCP) has filled this role for over two-thousand artists and curators from more than ninety countries over the last thirty years.
Featuring eleven essays and three transcripts from Rethinking Residencies Symposiums, the book examines residencies as networked entities uniquely positioned to address the evolving needs of artists and communities.
