Artquest are delighted to announce that artist David Raymond Conroy has been awarded the 2010 <<3 Months in Berlin>> residency. David Raymond Conroy (b. 1978) completed his MA at the Royal College of Art, London in 2007. Recent exhibitions include They Do Things Differently There, Talbot Rice Gallery, Edinburgh; Ueli Alder, David Raymond Conroy, Lilly Mcelroy, Cecile Weibel, Dienstgebäude, Zurich; Late Night Radio, Tate Britain, London and solo shows at Schnittraum//Lutz Becker, Cologne; Atelier Espace Delrue, Nantes and Seventeen, London. Conroy lives and works in London.

<<3 months in Berlin>> is an opportunity for a London-based visual arts or crafts practitioner at any stage of their career to live and make new work in one of Europe's most dynamic and exciting cities, providing a free live/work studio for 3 months, return air fare and a £1200 bursary.

The selected artist is based in a building shared with 40 local artists who are members of the Milchhof art group. It comprises a studio space (398 sqft), basic living space with cooking facilities and a mezzanine platform sleeping area. There is a shower and toilets across the corridor, which are shared with the other artists in the building. The live /work space is situated in Prenzlauerberg, in the heart of the Berlin art scene.

The selected artist produces three articles about their experiences for Artquest to disseminate on our website. This could include updates on work produced, galleries visited, or a general overview of life in Berlin and could incorporate images and / or photographs.
