The Penn State Altoona Visual Art Studies program is taking applications for a one-semester teaching residency in studio art with an emphasis in painting. The ideal candidate will be able to offer a low toxicity approach to painting that involves little or no solvents. Oils, watercolor, gouache and acrylic will all be considered. The residency is designed to offer an emerging artist substantial time to develop a new or existing body of work, and offers a $5,000 stipend and an additional $5,000 allowance to cover room and board in return for teaching one studio workshop in painting during the spring 2011 semester (January 10-May 5). The Emerging Artist in Residence will also mount a solo exhibition, lecture about their work, and serve as a resource to Visual Art Studies majors. Emphasis will be placed on the quality of the work submitted. A Masters of Fine Arts degree (earned within the last three years) is required for eligibility.
