Description

Asociación Jupiterfab is a Not For Profit Organization which was created in November 2014 to support art projects and artist with social impact. Started in February 2021, Asociación Jupiterfab offers a space to work and to live where artists can run their site specific projects. At the end of the residence the artist will have to organize an event (e.g. exhibit) inside the Art Residence. They support the artist with the logistics and communications.

They encourage artists to work on projects related with the area and the community around the residence and/or social topics, such as gentrification, immigration, social justice, poverty, homeless people… However, this is not a binding criteria. They would like artists in residence to engage with the local community somehow. They offer support in connecting with local organizations/art spaces.

Visual artists can join our community projects to paint walls of the two neighborhoods. They are running a community project with the neighbourhood. Visual artists or street artists can join it and paint one or more walls in the area. They also have a couple of walls in the central atrium that can be painted, if the artist prefers to work inside the art residency.

Outcome

Creating site specific projects or researches that will be shown in a public event in the art residence.

Studio Information

The residence offers two live/work spaces. They are open to hosting pairs of artists who are willing to share the same bed. In this case, they will charge the duo 100$ to cover extra costs.

Space A: One bedroom (5×3 meters) + studio (4×4 meters) for one artist. Rate: 500$ per month. This space can host artists who need separate spaces (sleeping and working).

Space B: One big bedroom/studio (5 x 6 meters). Rate: 500$ per month. This space is suitable for artists working in media that don’t require separate working and sleeping spaces.

Space C: This guest room/studio is open to two options: it can be for artists or researchers who need a place to work in Guadalajara for short terms (less than 1 month) or for artists coming for longer periods to run an art project in the residency. It is quite spacious, very full of light and air circulation (3 windows) and ready to be used for work. The artist will have full access to the common areas such as kitchen, central patio, laundry room etc. The cost per day is 30 US dollars per day for short stays or 500 US dollars if you are staying for an entire month or longer.

All spaces have a bed, closet, desk, one chair and one shelf. There are two bathrooms, residents can use: one full bathroom and another partial (no shower or bathtub).

You’re welcome to use your studio walls for an installation, but you will be asked to clean and repaint them at the end of your stay.
