In the summer of 2011, this project will unite in Donetsk eight international photographers, selected after an open-call application, for a month long residency. Under the curatorial guidance of Boris Mikhailov, the photographers are invited to embark on a creative journey, where they are to retrace and reexamine the city’s aesthetic field, giving it their own qualification.

Artists selected for the program are invited to live in Donetsk, Ukraine, for any 4 weeks from 4 July to 15 August, 2011. During the residency, artists will have an opportunity to attend a masterclass and have their portfolios reviewed by Boris Mikhailov. In return, each artist-in-residence will have to hold a one-day masterclass for local photographers.

All artists working in photography and related media are eligible to apply. Applications will be accepted until April 15, 2011. Artists-in-residence will be chosen by April 25, 2011.
