The Inaugural Resonance Grant Program is dedicated to visual arts projects and research initiatives that foster collaboration between France and Australia.
Support individual or group exhibitions and artistic projects, affiliated with an institution, presented by France-based and French artists in Australia, and Australia-based and Australian artists in France contributing to their visibility in new professional contexts. Facilitate curatorial research trips between the two countries, enabling France-based and French curators in Australia, and Australia-based and Australian curators in France to deepen their understanding of each other’s art ecosystems.
Projects selected for funding may receive up to AUD $15,000. Resonance Grants prioritize innovative practices and the creation of new works.
The program is open to projects that align with FACEF’s vision, mission and values. Applications for exhibitions and artistic projects must be submitted by eligible artistic organisations and not by the artists themselves. Eligible organisations include contemporary art centres, museums, artist-run spaces, project spaces, art education institutions, research centres, and online curatorial or artistic projects.
Applications for curatorial research trips must be submitted directly by the curators and should demonstrate a clear link to a specific curatorial or exhibition context, such as an art centre, institution, or major event. All applications must be submitted in English, and a confirmation email will be sent to each candidate upon submission.
