Camargo Foundation (Cassis, France) > Call for the core fellowships

The Camargo Foundation, located in Cassis, France and founded by artist
and philanthropist Jerome Hill, is a residential center offering
programming in the humanities and the arts. It offers time and space in a
contemplative environment to think, create, and connect. The Foundation
encourages the visionary work of scholars, artists, and leading thinkers
in the arts and humanities.

Located in a small town of the South of France, facing the Mediterranean
Sea, the Foundation offers an exceptional environment to think and create.
The quiet campus and the surrounding landscape, Cap Canaille, and the
Calanques national park enhance the residency experience. At the same
time, Camargo is only a 45-minute drive from Marseille, and near
Aix-en-Provence and Arles, which are major centers for arts, culture, and
research.

The core Fellowship program offers six, eight, and eleven week residential
fellowships to Artists, Scholars, and Leading Thinkers:

- Scholars and thinkers in arts and humanities should be working in French
and Francophone cultures, including cross-cultural studies that engage the
cultures and influences of the Mediterranean region. Thinkers include
professionals such as curators, artistic and executive directors of
cultural organizations, cultural critics, and academic deans

- Artists, in all disciplines, who are the primary creators of new work

The residency time is dedicated primarily to each Fellow’s work on site.
Regular project discussions are organized in which each Fellow’s work is
presented and discussed. Applicants must be fluent in English. Fellows may
work individually or with a collaborator.

Fellows are housed in private apartments with kitchens on the Foundation’s
campus, all with views of the Mediterranean and the Port of Cassis. A
stipend of $800 US per month is available, as is coverage of basic travel
expenses for the Fellow to and from Cassis. Spouses, partners, and
children age six and older are welcome. Children must be enrolled in and
attending school or off-campus activities.

This call is for two residency periods: one in Fall 2016 (2-month period
from September 13 to November 8, 2016) and one in Winter/Spring 2017
(applicants may choose six, eight or eleven weeks beginning February 21,
2017).

Deadline: 8 December 2015
