There are five large\u2014and, not unimportantly for some artists, high-ceilinged\u2014studios where artists work and live (kitchen and bathroom are shared). There is also a common area where a group exhibition is presented during the residency. In addition, there is an extensive program in which the group collectively visits museums, galleries, and local artists, and studio visits are organized to foster connections between the residents and art professionals.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/2-conversatie-over-kunst-in-caribisch-gebied.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/2-conversatie-over-kunst-in-caribisch-gebied.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/2-conversatie-over-kunst-in-caribisch-gebied-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, I visited LIAP at the Spinnerei in Leipzig for the first time and wrote extensively about it. This month, I was invited to spend a few days there as a visiting curator to conduct studio visits with the current residents and to have a conversation with LIAP founder Anna-Louise Rolland about the publication *Entangled Species* and art in the Caribbean. Leipzig is best known for the painters of the Leipziger Schule, and on this trip I see the influence of that diverse group of artists everywhere\u2014among the residents, as well as in galleries and museums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LIAP has a partnership with the NY Academy of Art (a private MFA program in Tribeca). Four students are given the opportunity to travel to Leipzig to complete their first residency there after earning their master\u2019s degrees. In this case, two students are sharing a studio. The four arrived a week before I did and have barely gotten over their jet lag. So it happens that I see intriguing works on a phone screen but, in the studio, find myself staring at (almost) empty canvases on the wall in the first studio\u2014which offer very little to reflect on, hahaha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Areeba Afreen Qureshi came to New York from Lahore, Pakistan, for the MFA program. She paints (figuratively) and, to a lesser extent, creates sculptures. Like many female students, her work deals with the body; in her case, she explores one\u2019s relationships with others, specifically mentioning \u201csafety\u201d and \u201csocial contact\u201d in the context of Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Areeba-Afreen-Qureshi-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13135\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Areeba-Afreen-Qureshi-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Areeba-Afreen-Qureshi-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Areeba-Afreen-Qureshi-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Areeba-Afreen-Qureshi-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Areeba-Afreen-Qureshi-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">American artist Carly Kate Andrew focuses on figurative painting and printmaking. She is fascinated by intimacy. On her phone, she shows me how she got started, and I scroll through what I\u2019ll describe as her \u201cNan Goldin period\u201d to where she is now\u2014where she only paints objects in which intimacy is \u201cvisible\u201d because they are everyday objects; their \u201cwear and tear\u201d makes the \u201cstrong bond\u201d between the object and the user\u2019s personal (intimate) connection palpable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Carly-Kate-Andrew-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Carly-Kate-Andrew-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Carly-Kate-Andrew-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Carly-Kate-Andrew-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Carly-Kate-Andrew-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Carly-Kate-Andrew-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the second studio, the recent graduates have been working with greater vigor. Helen Wordsworth, from Scotland, previously studied art history and literature but took the plunge into the creative world and chose to pursue an MFA. Flowers are her subject, rendered in pastel colors on a black background, captured in states of bloom and decay. Here, too, she works figuratively; during her residency, she is exploring, among other things, a connection between her love of literature and \u201cthe flower.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Helen-Wordsworth-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Helen-Wordsworth-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Helen-Wordsworth-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Helen-Wordsworth-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Helen-Wordsworth-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Helen-Wordsworth-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Michelle Palatnik, born and raised in New York, is her roommate (https:\/\/www.michellepalatnik.com). Painting is her medium, but when I walk into the studio, she has built an entire installation\u2014an intuitive response to a new (and still uncomfortable) environment\u2014which she later suggests might be a medium she can explore. The installation offers her safety and protection to paint; you feel as though you\u2019re being admitted into something special\u2014an abstract, universal glimpse into the psyche of\u2026 The small canvases depicting exteriors reveal uncertainty and emotional tension, but also that sense of safety, and the unique \u201clight\u201d she creates in her paintings\u2014a helping hand, a glimmer of hope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michelle-Palatnik-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michelle-Palatnik-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michelle-Palatnik-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michelle-Palatnik-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michelle-Palatnik-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michelle-Palatnik-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past three years since completing her MFA, Michaela Kessler has been making a name for herself locally in Austria. LIAP is her first step beyond her local context. In her work, too, I see an exploration of the body, intimacy, and space. In recent years, she has worked primarily in the medium of drawing. Her drawings are large-scale and involve a time-consuming process; a single piece easily takes her at least three months to complete. During the residency, she primarily wants to explore new work and experiment with new media\u2014she\u2019s currently creating spaces and researching the structure of animal skin and hair (horses, while I\u2019m there). And she wants to start painting\u2026 there\u2019s a large empty canvas hanging on the wall here, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michaela-Kessler-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michaela-Kessler-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michaela-Kessler-3-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michaela-Kessler-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michaela-Kessler-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Michaela-Kessler-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And in the \u201cDutch Artists Are Everywhere\u201d category, at LIAP that\u2019s mixed-media artist Monika Dahlberg. #IamwhoIam: In Leipzig, Dahlberg continues her exploration of the physical challenges her body faces and how to translate those into her work. Dahlberg suffered severe burns as a baby and, as a result, has two prosthetic legs. In her current research and work, she uses her amputation stumps as a starting point. Dahlberg approaches everything with great intention; her studio is, therefore, an explosion of \u201cwork in progress\u201d across various media, including painting, drawing, installation, ceramics, and sculpture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Monika-Dahlberg-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13145\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Monika-Dahlberg-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Monika-Dahlberg-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Monika-Dahlberg-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Monika-Dahlberg-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Monika-Dahlberg-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Australian artist Jarrad Martyn explores humanity\u2019s relationship with the natural environment. Drawing on archival materials, he creates drawings and collages, which he then meticulously and carefully abstracts into his final paintings. In Leipzig, he is conducting research in archives on native Australian flora and fauna that have ended up in the \u201ctropical collections\u201d of museums and zoos in Germany over the past few centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jarrod-Martyn-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jarrod-Martyn-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jarrod-Martyn-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jarrod-Martyn-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jarrod-Martyn-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/liap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jarrod-Martyn-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On June 27, the group exhibition will open in the LIAP common area, featuring the work of the artists listed above, curated by Marina Diaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LEIPZIG INTERNATIONAL ARTIST PROGRAM (LIAP)<br>Spinnereistra\u00dfe 7, Building 18, 2nd floor, right<br>04179 Leipzig<br>Germany<br>W: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.liap.eu\/\">www.liap.eu<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LIAP is a nonprofit residency program for international artists.
