SALT ROAD RESIDENCY \u2014 JUNE 2027<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Salt Road Residency is a fully funded three week international artist residency in Ako, Japan, located near the renowned art islands of the Seto Inland Sea. Created by Gina Keatley, founder and former owner of Bushwick Gallery in Brooklyn, NYC, the residency builds upon years of internationally recognized contemporary art programming, artist development, and cultural exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under Keatley\u2019s direction, Bushwick Gallery became known for showcasing hundreds of contemporary artworks by emerging and established international artists while generating press and visibility through platforms including ArtRabbit, Hamptons Fine Art Fair (HFAF), Dan\u2019s Papers, Whitehot Magazine, and Fine Art News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Located approximately two hours from Osaka by train, the residency is designed to offer artists both immersion and freedom. No car is needed, with train access within walking distance of the residency, allowing artists to independently explore the surrounding coastal region, nearby cities, and Japan\u2019s contemporary art landscape with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each year, three selected artists will receive flights, lodging, and a living stipend while participating in an intensive residency experience within a rural coastal Japanese community. Artists will have dedicated time and space to create new work, explore Japanese culture, and engage with international contemporary art dialogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Japanese language experience is not required. Translation support will be available throughout the residency, allowing artists to fully engage with local culture, creative exchange, and meaningful cross cultural collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Salt Road Residency aims to support globally engaged contemporary artists while fostering lasting relationships between art, travel, culture, and place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
