residency

Who wants a free studio in Brooklyn?!?

An outgrowth of Artists’ Workshop, Triangle Residency was created in 2002. The residency offers spacious studios for artists to realize large-scale, long-term projects and provides a collegial working environment. Studio residents are chosen yearly based upon a competitive portfolio submission application that is reviewed by a jury of New York based arts professionals and Triangle board members and staff.

Studio space is provided twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, free of charge. Resident artists are responsible for all other expenses including housing, travel, materials and meals.

André Avelãs
The work of André Avelãs – be it a performance, sculpture, installation, a recording or a combination of all of the above – explores the way in which sound is produced and how it creates meaning in relation to space and the conditions under which it is heard.

For more information about André and his work:
www.avelas.net

Neil Beloufa
Neil Beloufa uses the interview format to make videos that are disquieting mixtures of fact and fiction, utopian and dystopian. From people he meets in his travels, Beloufa creates loops that comprise many disjointed stories. His videos are then combined with found imagery and displayed upon expansive sculptures in disorienting and surprising ways to further unravel a documentarian aesthetic and our expectations of narrative.

Nathan Bennett
As an artist, I am a sculptor that makes use of photography, drawing and painting. My practice vacillates between the use of appropriated images and constructed objects for their physicality and its relationship to space and the illusionary potential of the flat surface. My work acts as a historical, negotiable and evolving idea reacting to the experience and desired of the human self as it crosses the boundaries of society and enculturation. My practice aligns subtle references to minimalism, sculpture, architecture and photography. I use post-minimalism as an object in to which I unload a visual vocabulary. Through my work, I create interactions between (pulp) culture, antiquated technological investigations, reality and fiction.

Astrid Busch
“I work site-specific, based on the exhibiton space and on influences from film and literature. My works enter into a dialogue with real space, expanding and transforming it into the fictional. New narratives arise in the viewer’s head, in which reality and fiction lie side by side. Photography is not just a picture on the wall, it becomes an intervention or an architectural part of the room and may be read as film stills from a film production whose plot remains withheld from us.”

Constantin Hartenstein
Constantin Hartenstein (*1982 in Herzberg, Germany) is an installation and video artist living and working in Berlin. His works deal with architectural appearances of spaces within the context of icons, mass media and fast forward consumer culture. He studied “Experimental Media” at the University of the Arts Berlin in the classes of Prof. Maria Vedder and Prof. Heinz Emigholz where he graduated with honors in 2009. In 2010, he was awarded the “Meisterschüler” degree at the HBK Braunschweig where he studied “Fine Arts” with Prof. Candice Breitz. Hartenstein worked for the German Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2011 as a film producer. The pavilion won the Golden Lion for Best National Pavilion of the Venice Biennale 2011, presenting the work of Christoph Schlingensief. In 2012, he is an artist in resident in New York granted by Triangle Arts Association (USA) as well as an artist in resident at the Grand Central Art Center, Santa Ana, California (USA). His works have been exhibited and screened at international galleries and institutions such as Volksbühne Berlin, Berlinische Galerie, transmediale and at the Herzliya Bienal (IL).

Chelsea Knight
My work looks at power and its authorship: my videos and performances combine documentary and fiction to examine contemporary social systems. The characters in my videos and performances explore and enact their relationships to predetermined or inherited systems —sometimes constructed, sometimes preexisting. Their resistance to or compliance with these spaces and relationships develops through improvisation. My aim as an artist is to set up a triangle of language, ideology and the body, arriving at the vulnerability and commutability of the body even as our views are formed, solidified and articulated.

Triangle Arts Association, in partnership with FUTURA, is pleased to annouce an Open Studios evening reception for resident artists Štefan Papčo and Laura Pawela.

Triangle Studios: 20 Jay Street 3rd Floor, Suite 350 Brooklyn NY 11201, 6-8pm.

Štefan Papčo, Restless Souls 7+, 2009, 540x330x160 cm, plywood, site-specific installation

Laura Pawella, Project in Utopia (Ohio) and Jones Beach, NY , 2011 ("Bloodbuzz Ohio")

Štefan Papčo’s sculptural spatial experiments investigate land as a bearer of potential to describe long-term development of a society bound to a specific place. He recently won Best Open Studio as well as the Grand Prize during the DUMBO Arts Festival in September 2011.

The work of Laura Pawela explores reality filtered through the imagination. Pawela first observes her surroundings and then overlays all of the absurdities, interesting phenomena, social habits or phobias that she discovers. Her work encompasses installation, video, sculpture, photography, and drawing.

Triangle’s Fall 2011 Resident Artists also include Stephanie Beck, Astrid Busch, Mathilde Delahaye, Sabine Meier, and Myriam Mechita.

Triangle Arts Association is a non-profit arts organization committed to supporting emerging and midcareer international visual artists. Founded in 1982 by the British sculptor Sir Anthony Caro, Triangle aims to encourage dialogue and experimentation through workshops, residencies and exhibition opportunities. Triangle’s partnership with FUTURA brings four European artists each year for three-month residencies in the Triangle studios.
