The Res Artis 2019 conference will have the theme of "Creative Encounters: Reimagining Residencies", and will be hosted by Kyoto City and Kyoto Art Center in cooperation with the Agency of Cultural Affairs.
The three-day conference will address the evolution of artist residency models and the rapid expansion of the field, comparing traditional "time and space" models with new residency typologies that reflect our changing social economy, including nomadic, start-up, virtual, and Airbnb residencies. Like artists in residence encountering different places for the first time, participants will experience the rich culture of Kyoto by way of excursions, city walks, and tea ceremonies that will encourage further dialogue and networking.
