Overview
This book is a compilation of papers derived from talks, presented at TransCultural Exchange's 2018 International Conference on Opportunities in the Arts. The aim of these talks was to inspire artists to think across disciplines and cultures and to suggest other career models beyond the typical studio to gallery/museum model. Much of this content is unique in that it not only addresses the practical needs of artists but, even more importantly, it does so in the context of today's global reality. As artists have noted on post-Conference surveys, this information is "the missing link in the art world; the bridge between academic and real-world practice; between a local and international career in the arts." By making this information available long-after the Conference's end and to those who could not directly participate in the Conference, many more artists will have access to where to find jobs/residency programs and funding for their work, information on how to put together successful residency applications, how to market their work, and other professional development programming. In addition, they (and interested members of the public) will have access to the Conference talks on what leading artists are doing across disciplines, with new technologies, and in the public sphere.
