[CALL FOR APPLICATION] COLLECTION MONOGRAPHIE 2020
To promote the dissemination of artists' work at each stage of their lives, ADAGP has devised a scholarship program to support them in particular in this major stage, which is the publication of a first monograph. Application deadline: September 30, 2020 2 p.m.
The Collection Monographie grants help support artists in the major stage of publishing their first monograph. Such a work is an essential tool for the dissemination of an artist's work, but it is an approach whose cost is often an obstacle.
Ten grants, amounting to € 15,000 each, will help finance the first monographic work of artists members of ADAGP. The whole repertoire of society can participate (plastic arts, comics, design, photography, sculpture ...).

Be a member of ADAGP for at least 3 years,
The publication project must be presented by the artist or his heirs in association with a publisher, an art center or a gallery.
For what type of work?
The publication must relate to the artist’s first monograph (reference work, ambitious for the artist, covering at least 10 years of work) or a reasoned catalog. It is not an exhibition catalog.
The publication must be part of an event (exhibition in a gallery, art center, book signing, symposium, etc.),
The publication must be made within 2 years of the award of the scholarship,
Minimum circulation of 500 copies.
