Applications are now open for the 2019/20 New Dimensions – NSW Visual Arts (Established) Fellowship, in the second year of a Create NSW and Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA) partnership.
The Fellowship supports the ongoing professional practice of visual arts practitioners in NSW, with Create NSW awarding a Fellow $30,000 in funding to undertake a self-directed professional development program or other significant opportunity. Further support for an additional project or acquisition is provided by the MCA up to the value of $20,000.
Last year’s inaugural Fellowship was awarded to internationally celebrated Marrickville-based artist Denis Beaubois, who is using his funding for a professional development program focused on ‘language, polyethnic nationalism and sovereignty’ in his home country of Mauritius and to investigate virtual reality techniques with which to present his work.
Applications for the 2019/20 NSW Visual Arts (Mid-Career/Established) Fellowship are now open and close 5pm Thursday 19 December 2019.
