PICTO LAB is a residency programme that offers each year to an artist to benefit from an accompaniment to experimentation and creation during three months (May-June-July) in Paris within the network of laboratories and production workshops of PICTO.
For the PICTO LAB programme, a number of partners are helping to publicise the work produced by the artist in residence: the Picto Foundation, the salon a ppro che, Fujifilm and the Cité internationale des arts.
PICTO LAB wishes to facilitate the development of a new project, by giving a photographer the possibility to test techniques and protocols, to exploit them in unexpected ways in order to go beyond or explore new possible fields of the image and its formal rendering. PICTO LAB is also a space for the photographer to meet and establish relationships with professionals who may contribute to the evolution of his/her work or interact with the project that is the object of the residency.
All the information and practical questions are to read below (please consult these elements before submitting your application).
The recipient will receive:
• A residency allowance of 4.000 € gross before tax
• A technical grant of 10.000 € dedicated to the experimentation phase and to the production of the works in the PICTO production workshops and laboratories.
• The photographer will have access to the production facilities of the PICTO. He/she will be supervised by a referent who will be able to guide and respond to the production needs of the project.
• The artist will be provided with a live-in studio or a studio at the Cité internationale des arts (at the Marias site) during the residency period, from May 04 to July 28, 2022. During the residency at the Cité internationale des arts, the photographer will benefit from the support programme conceived by the Cité internationale des arts’ team, as well as the open studios to show their work in progress and meetings with curators and art critics opening up opportunities for collaborations.Â
The PICTO LAB residency is aimed at photographers who have been working for at least two years. It is specified that the jury will be particularly sensitive to applications for which such an opportunity could constitute a real springboard in their career.
