- The Fine Arts Bivouac is a new curatorial effort placing engaging contemporary art in/on location with a certain specificity of place or region integral to the intent of the artist and therefore the art. The temporary placement of the art, in most cases distant from the artist, will rely on my curatorial intent to find worthy locations that might get attention from perhaps the flaneur (urban) or hiker, alpinist or traveler. I am equally as interested in the resulting documentation of the bivouacs.
-The distinction with the Fine Arts Bivouac is the singular focus on the art object through another?s curatorial effort and critical interest in the surprise attention of passersby. (If the artist is interested in participating in his or her own bivouac with the art in the Great Basin or northern Sierra Nevada in the U.S. West, read information about this possibility on fineartsbivouac.wordpress.com.)

ARCAPACHA is a residency center to host artists and writers, or to serve as a field station for researchers in the natural, agricultural and social science disciplines.
ARCAPACHA Philosophy
Art Our underlying theme is environmental art in any medium: still and video photography, illustration, painting, animation, sculpture, performance, theatre, music, architecture, literary works, and others.
Reforestation Situated in an ecologically rich region, we protect and plant the native flora. We help raise funds to preserve and regenerate local forested areas, and to promote community awareness towards the importance of forests for water resources and biodiversity.
Community We engage local workers at respectful wages. Our open library service shares a significant collection of books for all ages, in several languages. In the future, we want to advance our role in helping the community with practical matters such as waste management (sanitation, recycling and proper disposal), and farm productivity and marketing.
Agriculture We aim to produce our own food utilizing organic methods. Along the way we learn from and share knowledge with people in the area. In the future we want to engage regional cacao farmers in a small farmers cooperative to market to fair trade buyers, and help all members get better prices for our produce.
Pacha This is the Quechua word for Earth. If art could be grown organically, we think this is how it would be cultivated. Our unique artist-in-residence program offers support for your artistic endeavors in a pastoral tropical setting on a working farm.

Beijing is a city in rapid motion, and its emerging contemporary art scene consequently shares that characteristic. More and more international artists want to witness this dynamic first hand and apply for residencies in the Chinese capital. Platform China Contemporary Art Institute encourages this through the development of a residency program - Beijing International Artist Platform (BIAP) -- which offers artists an opportunity to work and live in such an active city.
In the developing but drastic course of Chinese contemporary art, Platform China, established in 2005, has a relatively long history of hosting tremendous exhibitions and offering residencies for international artists. Platform China is well established and maintains an excellent reputation.
If you are an emerging, mid-career or an established artist who has the desire to experience Beijing, no matter the discipline ( artists, curators, writers, designers, researchers and academics) Platform China can offer the chance to gain a better understanding of contemporary art in China, as well as provide a forum for communicating with other national and international artists.
