4 April 2024.
Announcing the Recipients of 44 Artist Residencies at the Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris for 2024-2025, an Experimental Performance Residency and Research Fellowship.
We are delighted to announce the recipients of residencies and a fellowship for the Centre’s 2024-2025 programme.
Artist residencies
44 artists across the spectrum of artistic backgrounds will spend at least one month in Paris to develop their proposed projects, which range from experimenting the performance of a solo dance piece surrounded by a full orchestra, developing a feature film that looks at young Irishmen seduced by far right politics, investigating prisoner-of-war theatre productions in camps across Europe, and writing a sci-fi theatre piece for younger audiences that takes place on one of the Aran Islands.
This year sees CCI partnering some 22 organisations for its artist residencies:
Department of Foreign Affairs, Music Network, Contemporary Music Centre (CMC), Irish Traditional Music Archive, Screen Composers Guild of Ireland, Cartoon Saloon, Visual Artists Ireland (VAI), Irish Architecture Foundation, Print Network Ireland, Literature Ireland, Poetry Ireland, Abbey Theatre, Draíocht, Ealaín na Gaeltachta, Meath Arts Office, Cork County Arts Office, Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown Arts Office, Leitrim County Council, Wexford Arts Centre and Wexford Arts Office, Galway County Arts Office, Olympic Federation of Ireland
