As part of its artistic creation subsidy program, the musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac annually awards an amount of 15 000 € net to each of the laureates selected (see list – 3 awards usually made), in order to undertake their project.
The project proposed by the candidate must develop a specific aspect of his personal artistic research, and must not be confined to the documentary field. It must allow the candidate to work on all or part of a project in the direct continuity of his current artistic production.
The amount of the creation subsidy granted to the laureate includes both the general expenses due to the costs of the project’s execution (travel, accommodation, technical costs …) and the artistic fees (author’s rights).
The “residency” doesn’t imply of a long-term stay in Paris (unless the artist has chosen to pursue his project in France). It consists in an “outdoor” work, that can be achieved anywhere.
