The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Archives Research Residency is an opportunity for researchers and scholars interested in visiting the Rauschenberg Foundation and its Archives in New York City. The program provides partial support for incurred costs related to travel and lodging expenses related to the visit.
The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Archives, consisting of Robert Rauschenberg’s personal papers and the records from his Florida and New York studios, is the most comprehensive body of information on the artist’s life and career. The Archives Research Residency supports continued scholarly and investigative use of these materials by supporting individuals that demonstrate a compelling need to use the archives and addressing financial barriers that may prohibit onsite access to the archives. In addition, the application is open to all individuals, thereby encouraging research opportunities that move beyond traditional art historical discourse.
Residencies are from one to three weeks in the following dates:
- 21 April – 30 May 2025
- 14 July – 1 August 2025
- 9 September – 7 November 2025
Projects can range from traditional to innovative:
- exhibitions and publications
- globalism and internationalism
- inspiration for personal art practice
- artistic collaboration and multi-disciplinary practices
- underrepresented topics and audiences
The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation will provide one-time project-based support to scholars, academics, artists, and other researchers who can demonstrate a compelling need to use the archival materials onsite at the foundation and who may face financial barriers to visiting. The application is open to U.S.-based and international individuals. Priority will be given to independent researchers, projects related to underrepresented topics/audiences, and those with significant distance to travel.
The programme provides partial support for incurred costs related to travel and lodging expenses related to the visit. The funds available are from 1,500 USD to 10,800 USD per residency depending on travel distance and residency length.
