AGENCY SHTORMIT TRANSFORM YOUR
PRACTICES
AS - MEANS "PRO"
Our team consists of professionals with many years of experience in the arts. We have combined the competencies of a curator and artist, art journalist and copywriter, coach and teacher. By investing the whole our experience and knowledge to help artists, we remain practicing authors.
WE KNOW HOW TO SOLVE ART PROBLEMS
The most important thing in positioning yourself in the West or East is the presentation: a well-designed portfolio, the correct CV or resume, your position - artistic statement, detailed presentation of the project and a beautifully designed personal website in English, an artist's archive with publications, clear motivation and recommendation letters.
The ability to think in projects and design them is one of the most difficult. If you want to go to an art residence, get a scholarship, then the first step is to understand how you present yourself and who you are. We will help you figure it out today.
If you want to learn how to fill out applications on your own, then see the Art School section.

database
1 month
Every day we search for and select art residencies, grants and new open-stakes for our artists. We realized that almost every third open-call is not suitable for Russian authors due to a variety of restrictions (for example, only for those living in Berlin, or for authors under 35, etc.)
We carefully read all the conditions for participation of each announcement and open-call, filter out unnecessary, conduct a fact-check. Our team makes a table with relevant and suitable contests. We open access to this list for our subscribers.
You are guaranteed to receive verified information about international projects (festivals, competitions, grants, awards, etc.) Each such list contains more than 25 positions for each month. We can make a separate selection for you on any topic: "sculpture", "exhibitions", "art fairs", "architecture" and much more
