We are pleased to announce that photographer and artist Julie Coulon will be in residency April 1 to May 15, 2024 as a part of The Elizabeth Krief and Jacques Manardo Artist Residency Program at The Invisible Dog. A four years project that offers artists of all disciplines and nationalities the opportunity to reside in New York City for 1-3 months, without any obligation of a final production and objective, aside from engaging with our city of fantasy, change, excess, power, possibility, hustle, and grandeur.
Everyone finds their own way and the experiments are impossible to anticipate. New York changes all who visit; we’re anxiously waiting to see what resident artists see and discover. Artists will be housed in a furnished apartment in the heart of Brooklyn near The Invisible Dog Art Center and are encouraged to live in total immersion, connect with one of the most vibrant artist communities, meet professionals from the international art world, and participate in events in New York and abroad (Armory Show, Frieze, etc.).
The residency requires applicants to have presented work in their country of origin (USA included) or abroad, but having spent little to no time in New York City.
This 4-year-old program was made possible thanks to the exclusive support of Elizabeth Krief and Jacques Manardo.
Julie Coulon (b.1997) resides and works in Paris, cultivating her photographic and filmic skills at the Beaux-Arts in Paris and the School of Visual Arts in New York. Grounded in an approach that blurs the lines between fiction and reality, her images and performances seamlessly navigate between staged scenarios and documentary authenticity. Coulon's artistic endeavors have garnered recognition through inclusion in collective exhibitions, such as those at the Théâtre de la Criée in Marseille (2019), the PhotoSaintGermain Festival (2019) in Paris, and the Nuit Blanche (2023). Her inaugural solo exhibition, "Strangers May Kiss," unfolded at the Galerie du Crous in 2022.
Coulon's artistic journey has been enriched through residencies at the HFBK in Hamburg (2020) and the Palazzo Spinelli in Naples (2021). Actively contributing to the artistic community, she is a member of the French artists collective Diamètre 15. Currently, in 2023, Coulon is engaged in a post-master program with les Beaux-Arts de Paris and the RedStar Football Club, further advancing her exploration and expression within the realm of visual arts.
