Description

Transmitter Gallery and Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York are excited to announce TNT Residency, a 6-month fully funded 430 square foot studio adjacent to both galleries at 1329 Willoughby Avenue, culminating in a solo exhibition or open studio event within the studio space. This residency will occur in two cycles per year, each with separate application cycles: Our “Winter” residency runs from January through June, and our “Summer” residency will run from July through December. The open call is for Summer 2025. The Summer residency will commence on July 5th, 2025, culminating in a potential solo exhibition from November 8th until the end of the residency on December 14th, 2025. Depending on resident priorities, the resident may instead elect to host an open studio event during the final weekend of the residency. The exhibition will include a $250 honorarium and professional installation shots. We will prioritize underrepresented artists and artists who produce works not always viable in traditional commercial markets. We encourage artists from all educational backgrounds to apply, and we are excited to see work from artists based across the United States and internationally. Important note: we do not provide housing for the TNT Residency; if you are not based in New York City, you are responsible for securing a living space for the duration of your residency. Residents may not live in or stay overnight in the studio. The studios and facilities are not ADA compliant. Selection process: 10 semi-finalists will be selected. From those 10, 3 artists will receive Zoom studio visits. From this group of 3 finalists, the recipient of the winter TNT Residency will be selected.
