The Foundation has opted to delay reopening of the residency until spring 2022. When we reopen, artists who had to defer in 2020 will receive priority. The extended closure allows us to swiftly move forward with our climate change adaptation plan that will retain the property’s integrity and enhance what Robert Rauschenberg created. By early 2022, the septic system will be converted to sewer, manicured lawn will return to meadowland, invasive plants will be replaced with natives, existing structures will be reinforced, and construction of a 6000 sq.ft. building with studios, a kitchen and commons area will be completed.  We anticipate a productive pause in our program, and eagerly anticipate the artists return.

Partnerships: In 2020, the Rauschenberg Residency partnered with 3Arts (Chicago), Photolucida (Portland), Thoma Foundation, and Oolite Arts (Miami), in order to expand the selection process and broaden diversity.

PhD Candidates: In 2020, the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation inaugurated a residency program for scholars who are nearing completion of their dissertations on Postwar art. These emerging art historians are provided with the time to make significant progress on their dissertations.
