Vasl’s Taaza Tareen is a residency program for recent art-school graduates that began in 2005. Through Taaza Tareen, Vasl offers junior artists a nurturing and open ended environment, with mentorship from a community of senior artists, academics, art critics and curators.
“Through its Taaza Tareen program, Vasl has supported artists at formative stages of their profession, a crucial time when their practice is often most receptive to growth through incorporating new ideas and experiences…”
Iftikhar Dadi, Associate Professor, Department of History of Art, Cornell University, USA
The 8th Taaza Tareen Residency, To-let, will focus on specific sites in the city to generate creative responses. To-let aims at creating a sense of simultaneous happenings, which provides the opportunity for resident artists to reach out to a wider audience, leading to experimental collaborations and discourses.
