LUX Associate Artists Programme (AAP), is a 12 month post-academic development course for artists working with the moving image who have completed a graduate or post-graduate course in the past five years.
LUX Associate Artists Programme (AAP), is a 12 month post-academic development course for artists working with the moving image who have completed a graduate or post-graduate course in the past five years. It aims to provide an intensive development focused on critical discourse, extending to the practical and infrastructural issues that present challenges for artists working with the medium. The programme aims to provide a mutually supportive context in which to develop work, and to benefit from networking and learning opportunities with arts professionals closely involved in artists’ moving image, with funding to realise a final group project.
The programme consists of a minimum of 12 monthly critical seminars taking place at LUX on the third Sunday of every month, exploring issues around artists’ moving image in the context of the artists’ own practice. The particular focus of each seminar will be decided by the participants in discussion with the programme facilitator, and each one will be based around an invited arts professional (artists, curators, writers etc). There will also be an informal programme of relevant events including access to LUX events during the year.
In addition, each artist will be paired with a mentor who they will meet with up to six times during the course. They will also have continuous access to specialist support from LUX staff and the programme facilitator during the year.
Guest speakers and mentors on the programme have so far included: John Akomfrah, Robert Beavers, Gregg Bordowitz, Duncan Campbell, Marc Camille Chaimowicz, JJ Charlesworth, Adam Chodzko, Steve Claydon, Stuart Comer, Ann Course, Adam Curtis, Stephan Dillemuth, Kodwo Eshun, Cerith Wyn Evans, Harun Farocki, Ryan Gander, Andrea Geyer, Melanie Gilligan, Neil Gray, Graham Gussin, Emma Hedditch, Will Holder, Chrissie Iles, Mary Kelly, Torsten Lauschmann, Malcolm le Grice, Mark Leckey, Francis McKee, Daria Martin, Simon Martin, Jeremy Millar, Rachel O.

The programme is designed to be flexible and work around jobs and other commitments so most activity takes place in the evening and at weekends, but applicants should be aware that the programme does involve a significant commitment throughout the year and should be regarded by participants as a priority. Applicants should especially note the dates for the regular monthly meetings, on the third Sunday of each month. They are mandatory and successful applicants are asked to commit to them as a condition of commencing the programme.
The programme is free to participants, but they will be expected to cover their own costs such as travel.
Applications are now closed, the call for future years will be made on the LUX NEWSWIRE.
