The 2020-2021 Pollock-Krasner Residency at ISCP will take place to the fullest extent possible due to COVID-19; ISCP adheres to best and safest practices for the residents and staff. ISCP is currently accepting applications from United States visual artists including painters, sculptors, photographers, and artists who work on paper, including printmakers who would like to engage with ISCP's unique and dynamic programming and creative community. The residency program includes 24-hour access to a private furnished studio space, regular studio visits from Visiting Critics; Field Trips to museums, galleries and other cultural venues; and participation in Artist Talks. In addition, residents have the opportunity to have a studio assistant. Residents become part of a growing network of international artists and curators who are ISCP alumni.
