Rezidenční pobyt pro umělce v Antarktidě
Národní institut pro Antarktidu, Ministerstvo zahraničí Argentiny, Mezinárodní organizace Trade and Cult vyhlašují výběrové řízení na rezidenční pobyt v argentinských antarktických stanicích. Instituce a organizace jednotlivých států mohou navrhnout jednoho/nu až dva/ě umělce/umělkyně, který/á bude pracovat na konkrétním projektu na jedné z výzkumných antarktických stanic. Relevatní jsou tvůrčí práce s tématikou ochrany životního prostředí. Plánovaná doba rezidenčního pobytu je 30 - 40 dní. Argentinská strana hradí zpáteční cestu Buenos Aires - Antarktida; ubytování a diety; logistické zajištění celé akce; a zahrnutí umělců/umělkyň do Antarctic Art Program. Vzhledem ke specifickým podmínkám (izolovanost stanic, drsné životní prostředí) tohoto rezidenčního pobytu je nutno podrobit se fyzickým i psychologickým testům, které prokáží a potvrdí odolnost budoucího rezidenta či rezidetnky. Uzávěrka pro přihlášení projektů je 15. října 2011.
Národní instituce zajišťují sponsory pokrývající náklady, které nejsou uhrazeny argentinskou stranou. mj. cestu do Argentiny.

The selection of projects will be performed by a committee of specialists of the National Direction of the Antarctic.
We would like to inform all artists and institutions that are willing to apply to the Institutional Cooperation Agreement that the characteristics of the Antarctic continent are very particular and special, as the weather is inhospitable; living conditions and isolation, both human and technological, may generate special situations of uncertainty and anxiety in individuals. Therefore, it is mandatory that the prospective temporary residents at the Argentine Antarctic Stations have intimate convictions to carry out experiences in the Antarctica being totally aware of and accepting life as it is in that continent. The artists shall timely submit a physical and psychological fitness certificate and a certificate of commitment with environment protection.
Documents of the artist(s) applying for residence in the Antarctica.
