The AGITPROP residency is designed to give a concerned individual the opportunity to create art with a message. We are reaching out to all of those (not just artists) who have a cause they believe in. The project will take form as a new residency program focused on traditional printmaking techniques (e.g., letterpress, silkscreen, etching, relief, photopolymer plates) and building a bridge between printmaking’s historic relationship to generating social/cultural/political awareness and contemporary social media/online forums. The Compound Gallery, LLC in northwest Oakland will serve as headquarters for the residency program, but dissemination of residency projects will take place publicly - anywhere in Alameda, Contra Costa, San Francisco counties, and possibly beyond the Bay Area- as well as across the internet.
Our goal is to support concerned individuals by sharing the Compound’s extensive art making facilities so that they may share one important cause of their choosing to produce at least 100 prints (posters, brochures, postcards, zines) that highlight the objectives of their cause in one month’s time.
Produced works must not be for sale. All printed matter must be distributed freely into the world.
