Visit the studios of this summer’s Banff Artist in Residence (BAiR) participants and see how they pushed creative boundaries during their six weeks at Banff Centre. Engage with participating artists about their processes as you explore their ideas in development and works in progress.
Summer BAiR is a transformative residency that provides mentorship, critical feedback, and studio time to visual artists and curators at any stage in their careers.
Open to visual artists working across mediums, Summer BAiR combines the freedom of a self-directed residency with the supportive benefits of an organized program. As well as receiving the space to create, research, and experiment, participants are part of an international community of contemporary artists committed to developing and expanding their practice.
This is an exciting opportunity for the participants to share their work, and for the public to ask them about their processes. Artists, art appreciators, and curious first-time viewers alike are encouraged to attend.
Visual Arts is supported by Fondation DRG and the Gail and Stephen A. Jarislowsky Outstanding Artist Program.
