Alex Poots, Artistic Director and CEO of The Shed, announced that 52 emerging artists and collectives living or working in New York City have been commissioned to create new work as part of The Shed’s inaugural Open Call program. Developed specifically for New York City artists who have not yet had opportunities to create new work with full support from a large cultural institution, Open Call is integral to The Shed’s vision: to develop and present the full spectrum of performing arts, visual arts, and pop culture, under one roof, for all audiences. Open Call debuts in The Shed’s 2019 season, with works continuing to be presented into 2020.

Each artist will receive a stipend between $7,000 and $15,000, depending on the scope of the proposed project, in addition to support and resources to develop their work.

Work commissioned for Open Call will be presented in The Shed’s black-box Theater, the 12,500-square-foot column-free Gallery I, and the 17,000 square-foot open-air plaza in front of the building (configured when The Shed's movable shell is nested over the base building). Three programs will be presented consecutively beginning in late spring 2019, with a fourth program in 2020. All programs will be free and open to the public (ticketing details to be announced).
