IT PROVIDES TIME AND SPACE IN A CONTEMPLATIVE ENVIRONMENT TO THINK, CREATE, AND CONNECT. THE FOUNDATION ENCOURAGES THE VISIONARY WORK OF SCHOLARS, ARTISTS, AND LEADING THINKERS IN THE ARTS AND HUMANITIES.CAMARGO FOUNDATION HOSTS CULTURAL EVENTS AND MEETINGS FOR ITS REGIONAL COMMUNITY, WHICH INCLUDES MARSEILLE, FRANCE'S LARGEST CITY, TWO MILES AWAY. THE FOUNDATION ALSO PARTNERS WITH ARTS AND HUMANITIES ORGANIZATIONS TO BRING PROGRAMMING TO ITS CAMPUS.IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CAMARGO FOUNDATION MISSION STATEMENT, THE CORE PROGRAM PROVIDES RESIDENCIES OF FOUR TO ELEVEN WEEKS TO ARTISTS, SCHOLARS, AND LEADING THINKERS/INTELLECTUALS TO SUPPORT VISIONARY WORK. FOR SCHOLARS AND THINKERS, THEIR PROPOSED PROJECT/AREA OF INQUIRY SHOULD BE IN FRENCH AND/OR FRANCOPHONE CULTURES, INCLUDING CROSS-CULTURAL STUDIES THAT ENGAGE THE CULTURES AND INFLUENCES OF THE MEDITERRANEAN REGION. ARTISTS FROM ANY DISCIPLINE ARE WELCOMED, AS LONG AS THEY ARE PRIMARY CREATORS OF NEW WORKS. EQUAL NUMBERS OF ARTISTS AND SCHOLARS/THINKERS ARE SELECTED IN EACH PROGRAM YEAR.THE CAMARGO FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM IS OPEN TO APPLICANTS OF ANY NATIONALITY. SELECTION CRITERIA ARE THE QUALITY OF THE PROJECT/WORK/AREA OF INQUIRY, THE QUALITY AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE APPLICANT, THE RELEVANCY OF COMING TO THE PROVENCE REGION, THE IMPORTANCE OF RECEIVING A RESIDENCY AT THIS STAGE OF HIS/HER CAREER, AND AN INCLUSIVE ENVIRONMENT FOR WORK AND EXCHANGE. IN 2014, THE CALL FOR APPLICATIONS WAS RELEASED INTERNATIONALLY. CAMARGO RECEIVED 626 APPLICATIONS. INDEPENDENT AND EXPERT PANELS CHOSE NINE ARTISTS AND NINE SCHOLARS FOR RESIDENCIES IN THE FALL OF 2014 AND THE WINTER/SPRING OF 2015. FOLLOWING THIS SUMMARY IS AN ABSTRACT OF THE FELLOWS AND THEIR PROJECTS IN THE FALL OF 2014.IN 2014, THE CAMARGO FOUNDATION PARTNERED WITH THE BREAD LOAF WRITERS' CONFERENCE, ONE OF AMERICA'S MOST VALUABLE LITERARY INSTITUTIONS. FOR THE PAST 89 YEARS, WORKSHOPS, LECTURES, AND CLASSES, HELD IN THE SHADOW OF THE GREEN MOUNTAINS, HAVE INTRODUCED GENERATIONS OF PARTICIPANTS TO RIGOROUS PRACTICAL AND THEORETICAL APPROACHES TO THE CRAFT OF WRITING, AND GIVEN AMERICA ITSELF PROVEN MODELS OF LITERARY INSTRUCTION. A JOINT FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM WITH CAMARGO GIVES FORMER BREAD LOAF WRITERS' CONFERENCE ATTENDEES A MONTH-LONG RESIDENCY STAY AT THE FOUNDATION, PROVIDING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR INTENSIVE AND UNDIVIDED ATTENTION TO THEIR WORK WITHIN A FOCUSED AND SERIOUS COMMUNITY OF FELLOW WRITERS. EIGHT FELLOWS PLUS A RESIDENCY COORDINATOR AND GUEST ARTISTS WERE IN RESIDENCE AT CAMARGO FOR THE MONTH OF MAY. THE RESIDENCY WAS SUCCESSFUL; ALL SELECTED WRITERS GAVE POSITIVE FEEDBACK AND BREAD LOAF STAFF WAS ALSO VERY POSITIVE. IN 2014, THE FOUNDATION WELCOMED, ON CONTRACT, THE BAU INSTITUTE, NEW YORK, AND ITS COMPETITIVELY SELECTED ARTIST FELLOWS WORKING IN THE FIELDS OF VISUAL ARTS, CREATIVE WRITING, MUSIC, THEATER, AND PERFORMANCE ART. THE RESIDENCY PERIOD WAS ONE MONTH DURING THE SUMMER, AND SERVED 25 ARTISTS. THE BAU INSTITUTE'S RESIDENCIES AND PROGRAMS HAVE PROVIDED FOR UP TO 300 ARTISTS AND STUDENTS AND RELATED PROFESSIONALS TO CREATE NEW WORK.

    ABSTRACT OF THE PROJECTS AND STAY AT CAMARGO FOUNDATION, FELLOWS FALL 2014 FORM 990PF, PART IX-A, SUMMARY OF DIRECT CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES ALICE KAPLAN, PROFESSEUR DE FRANCAIS - JOHN M. MUSSER - UNIVERSITE DE YALE, NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, USAABSTRACT OF YOUR PROJECT:I CAME TO THE CAMARGO TO WRITE THE HISTORY OF CAMUS' FIRST AND BEST-LOVED NOVEL, THE STRANGER. MY BOOK BEGINS IN OCTOBER 1939, THE START OF THE WAR IN EUROPE, WHEN CAMUS, A THIRTY-SIX YEAR OLD UNEMPLOYED JOURNALIST STAYING AT HIS MOTHER'S APARTMENT IN ALGIERS, BURNED FIVE YEARS OF CORRESPONDENCE-LETTERS FROM FRIENDS, TEACHERS, LOVERS. WAS IT THE BONFIRE THAT STRIPPED HIM TO HIS ESSENCE AND ALLOWED HIM TO BEGIN WRITING, OR WAS IT THE WAR ITSELF-THE KNOWLEDGE OF A UNIVERSAL BONFIRE TO COME-THAT FREED HIS IMAGINATION? BY THE FOLLOWING MARCH, CAMUS WAS LIVING IN A MODEST HOTEL IN MONTMARTRE, WHERE HE WROTE THE FIRST DRAFT OF THE STRANGER IN A MATTER OF WEEKS. IN JUNE, THE NAZI ARMY INVADED PARIS AND CAMUS LEFT THE CITY FOR THE FREE ZONE, PART OF THE GREAT EXODUS OF JUNE 1940. OVER THE FOLLOWING YEAR AND A HALF, HIS MANUSCRIPT ZIG-ZAGGED BETWEEN ALGERIA AND FRANCE. CAMUS RESPONDED TO CRITIQUES FROM HIS MENTORS. THE STRANGER WAS RECOGNIZED IMMEDIATELY BY JEAN PAULHAN, E HIS EDITOR AT GALLIMARD, AS "FRANKLY BEAUTIFUL," "SERIOUSLY GOOD" AND "GRIPPING." WHEN THE NOVEL WAS FINALLY PUBLISHED IN APRIL 1942, CAMUS WAS ISOLATED IN ORAN, ON THE ALGERIAN COAST, STRUGGLING WITH A RELAPSE OF HIS TUBERCULOSIS. HE RECEIVED A SINGLE COPY OF HIS NOVEL, AND HE STILL HAD NO CONTRACT. IN THE MONTHS FOLLOWING PUBLICATION HE REACTED TO THE FIRST REVIEWS-THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE IDIOTIC. HE RETURNED TO FRANCE FOR TUBERCULOSIS TREATMENTS IN THE MASSIF CENTRAL, WHERE HE MADE CONTACT WITH THE RESISTANCE AND LOST ANY POSSIBILITY OF RETURNING TO ALGERIA WHEN THE ALLIES LANDED IN NORTH AFRICA IN NOVEMBER 1942. BY 1944, AT THE LIBERATION OF FRANCE, CAMUS WAS EDITOR IN CHIEF OF THE ESTEEMED UNDERGROUND NEWSPAPER, COMBAT. AND IN 1946, HE TRAVELED TO NEW YORK FOR THE ENGLISH-LANGUAGE PUBLICATION OF THE STRANGER, ALREADY CONSIDERED THE MOST IMPORTANT NEW NOVEL TO EMERGE FROM THE WAR. FROM INSPIRATION TO PUBLICATION, IT WAS AN EPIC JOURNEY. ON MY DESK IN THE CAMARGO LIBRARY: CAMUS' JOURNALISM (ESPECIALLY HIS ACCOUNTS OF THE TRIALS HE COVERED); HIS WORK-IN-PROGRESS NOTEBOOKS, HIS CORRESPONDENCE WITH HIS MENTORS (PASCAL PIA, HIS FELLOW EDITOR AND FRIEND; JEAN GRENIER, HIS PHILOSOPHY PROFESSOR, AND ANDRE MALRAUX, WHO TOOK CAMUS UNDER HIS WING AND USHERED HIM ONTO THE STAGE OF FRENCH LITERATURE); AND A THICK FILE OF REVIEWS. DURING MY RESIDENCY, I TRAVELED REGULARLY TO AIX. AT THE CENTRE DE DOCUMENTATION ALBERT CAMUS AT THE BIBLIOTHEQUE MEJANES, MARCELLE MAHASELA WAS A TRUSTED GUIDE FOR WORK WITH CAMUS MANUSCRIPTS AND LETTERS; AT THE ARCHIVES NATIONALES D'OUTRE MER, DANIEL HICK HELPED ME UNCOVER AN ARRAY OF DOCUMENTS ON LIFE IN ALGIERS, ORAN, AND BOUISSEVILLE BEACH DURING THE WAR YEARS.FINALLY, IN LOURMARIN, ON THE STREET WHERE CAMUS LIVED AT THE END OF HIS LIFE, CATHERINE CAMUS AND HER ASSISTANT ALEXANDRE ALAJBEGOVIC SHARED THEIR EXCEPTIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND RESOURCES WITH PATIENCE AND GENEROSITY.KEY WORDS: CAMUS, ALGERIA, WORLD WAR II, FRENCH NOVELS, INTELLECTUAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY, TWENTIETH CENTURY, POLITICS, TWENTIETH CENTURY, EXISTENTIALISM (NEW)FELIX DE LA CONCHA, PAINTER, INDEPENDENT ARTIST, IOWA CITY AND MADRID, USA AND SPAINABSTRACT OF YOUR PROJECT:PROJECT: CASSIS. AMONG SO MUCH BEAUTY IN THIS REGION I INSTEAD FOUND ATTRACTIVE SOME PROSAIC VIEWS THAT I PAINTED EN PLEIN-AIR.I WAS EVERY DAY WORKING IN THE STREETS OF CASSIS -FOR THE MOST A TOURISTIC AND SUNNY VILLAGE. BUT THE ADVANTAGE TO SPEND SOME LONGER TIME THAN A REGULAR TOURIST IS THAT THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY TO HAVE A DIFFERENT DIALOGUE WITH ITS SPACE AND INHABITANTS. AND DISCOVER OTHER ASPECTS, MORE ON THE SPIRIT OF THE PLACE.MY FIRST PAINTING WAS A SMALL VIEW OF THE CARROUSEL IN TOWN UNDER AN EARLY MORNING LIGHT. AND MY LAST ONE A LARGER PAINTING WITH THE SAME CARROUSEL MOTIVE BUT AT NIGHT. THE CARROUSEL IS GOING TO BECOME A SYMBOLIC ELEMENT. NOT ONLY BECAUSE STARTING AND FINISHING MY RESIDENCY PROJECT WITH IT COMPLETED A CIRCLE IN ITSELF, BUT ALSO BECAUSE BETWEEN THESE TWO WORKS THE REST WAS ALSO A DEVELOPMENT OF DIFFERENT CIRCLES.IN THE MORNING I DID A SERIES OF SMALL PAINTINGS AROUND A CYPRESS AT THE AVENUE DE LA VIGUERIE. IN THE AFTERNOON, INSTEAD TO MOVE MYSELF AROUND THIS CYPRESS I WAS ANCHORED IN THE SAME POINT. AND LOOKING FROM THERE AT IT I RECREATED ANOTHER CIRCLE AS I PAINTED THE PANORAMA WITH THE SURROUNDING ELEMENTS. I COMPLETED A CIRCULAR VISION OF THE STREET IN A COMPOSITION OF NINE PANELS. AVENUE DE LA VIGUERIE TURNED OUT TO BE A BUSIER STREET THAN I THOUGHT. I HAD TO DEAL WITH EVERYDAY LIFE AND FACING EVERY KIND OF ADVENTURES FROM THE MUNDANE. THIS MEANS TO HAVE TO NEGOTIATE SOMETIMES THE SPACE. THE STREET WAS UNDER CONSTRUCTION DURING ALL THESE PERIOD. AND ALTHOUGH MY SPOT WAS THE ENTRANCE OF A PRIVATE GARAGE AND NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE ANY CARS PARKED IN FRONT, MANY USED IT AS A TEMPORARY REMEDY EITHER FOR DELIVERY OR AS FRANK, ANOTHER KIND OF PAINTER WHO WAS DOING REPAIRS IN THAT BUILDING.I NEEDED TO ASK FOR HELP EVEN TO JULIE, THE DIRECTOR OF CAMARGO, TO EXPLAIN TO HIM THAT WITH HIS CAR THERE WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO COMPLETE THE PANORAMA. THESE DIPLOMATIC NEGOTIATIONS WERE ESSENTIAL TO CLOSE THIS "CIRCLE" SUCCESSFULLY.LUCKY ENOUGH FRANK THE PAINTER COULD FINALLY UNDERSTAND THE RELEVANCE OF MY WORK AND TOOK THE EFFORT OF PARKING SOMEWHERE ELSE. THIS ONLY HAPPENED BECAUSE STARTED TO SEE WITH SYMPATHY WHAT I WAS DOING. I OFTEN GET THE ADVANTAGE THAT IN GENERAL PEOPLE LIKE TO SEE ME PAINTING.ANOTHER STORY WILL BE IF I WAS "OCCUPYING THAT CORNER" WITH A DIFFERENT JOB. SELLCING CRACK, FOR INSTANCE... BUT NO PROBLEM WITH THE KIND OF DRUG ADDICTION THAT PAINTING IS FOR ME.ABOUT YOUR STAY:CAMARGO PROVIDED ME WITH A CONCENTRATED FORM OF THINKING. FOR THE REST, ONE THING I ENJOY IN RESIDENCIES IS THAT FELLOWS ARE ALWAYS NEUROTIC PEOPLE FUN TO BE AMONG.JOHN GIBSON, COMPOSITEUR, BLOOMINGTON, INDIANA, USAABSTRACT OF YOUR PROJECT:IN FLIGHT IS A COMPOSITION FOR CHORUS AND LIVE ELECTRONICS THAT ENGAGES THE MYTH OF ICARUS, IMAGINARY TRAVEL IN DREAMS, AND THE PRIVATE REFLECTIONS OF JET PASSENGERS. THE 30-MINUTE WORK FOR A CHORUS OF 24 SINGERS AND TWO LAPTOP PERFORMERS WILL BE PREMIERED BY THE NOTUS ENSEMBLE AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY IN THE FALL OF 2015.TEXTS BY WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS, ELIZABETH BISHOP, MARGARET ATWOOD, AND OTHERS EXPLORE THE THEME OF FLIGHT IN MANY DIFFERENT MANIFESTATIONS. THE VARIED APPROACHES OF THE POETS ALLOWS FOR A WIDE RANGE OF TONE AND AFFECT, FROM WILLIAMS' GENTLE NARRATIVE OF ICARUS' DOWNFALL TO BISHOP'S ACCOUNT OF A NIGHT FLIGHT ABOVE AN URBAN LANDSCAPE, DURING WHICH THE PASSENGER IMAGINES TERRIFYING VIOLENCE AND DECAY.THE LAPTOPS RUN SOFTWARE OF MY OWN DESIGN THAT CREATES A WIDE VARIETY OF SOUNDS THAT COMPLEMENT THE SINGERS' PERFORMANCE. THE SINGERS USE HANDHELD MOBILE DEVICES TO INFLUENCE THE COMPUTER-GENERATED SOUND, BY WAVING THE DEVICES AROUND, SHAKING THEM, AND TAPPING THE TOUCH SCREENS. THIS SETUP IS MEANT TO UPDATE A COMMON PERFORMANCE PRACTICE IN WHICH CHORAL SINGERS PLAY WINE GLASSES OR SMALL PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS WHILE SINGING.DURING MY CAMARGO RESIDENCY I DEVELOPED SOFTWARE FOR SEVERAL PROTOTYPES OF THE MOBILE DEVICE-CONTROLLED ELECTRONIC SOUND. I ALSO COMPLETED TWO MOVEMENTS OF THE PIECE: A SETTING OF THE WILLIAMS TEXT, AND A SETTING OF A POEM ABOUT BIRD FLIGHT BY LINDA ALLARDT. THE WILLIAMS POEM FOCUSES ON AN UNUSUAL PAINTING BY BRUEGEL THAT PLACES THE ICARUS MYTH IN THE CONTEXT OF 16TH CENTURY NORTHERN EUROPEAN PASTORAL LIFE.THE FARMERS IN THE FOREGROUND OF THE PAINTING SEEM UNCONCERNED WITH ICARUS TUMBLING INTO THE SEA IN THE MIDDLE GROUND.MY SETTING USES A BLEND OF HOCKETING, WORDLESS VOICES AND COMPUTER-GENERATED SOUND-WASHES TO CREATE AN IMAGE OF THE SEA, GLINTING IN THE SUNLIGHT, WHILE A TENOR SOLO DESCRIBES THE SCENE LEADING UP TO ICARUS' PLUNGE, AS WELL AS THE CASUAL REACTION OF THE FARMERS. THE VIEW OF THE MEDITERRANEAN JUST OUTSIDE MY STUDIO MADE IT EASY TO IMAGINE HOW THIS SHOULD SOUND.THE ALLARDT POEM, ABOUT THE RAPID FLIGHT OF A GOLDFINCH, PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE SINGERS TO ALTERNATE BETWEEN A STRAIGHTFORWARD DECLAMATION OF THE TEXT AND MORE UNUSUAL, NOISY VOCAL PRODUCTION, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY USING THE MOBILE DEVICES TO INVOKE SYNTHETIC BIRDSONG AND LEAF-RUSTLING. KEYWORDS: A CAPELLA CHORUS, COMPUTER MUSIC, ELECTROACOUSTIC, MUSIC COMPOSITION, MUSIC AND POETRY, REAL-TIME ELECTRONICS, SOUND SYNTHESISABOUT YOUR STAYIT'S HARD TO IMAGINE A MORE DELIGHTFUL SETTING FOR MAKING NEW WORK AND THINKING DEEPLY ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING.THE COMPOSER'S STUDIO IN LA LEQUE LOOKS OUT OVER THE MEDITERRANEAN. I SAT AT A STEINWAY BABY GRAND AND IMPROVISED WHILE WATCHING THE SUN AND SAILBOATS. JUST OUTSIDE IS A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN AND THE CHINESE TERRACE, ALL PERCHED JUST ABOVE THE SPOT WHERE THE SEA HITS THE RETAINING WALL. TO THE LEFT, I HAD A STUNNING VIEW OF THE PORT OF CASSIS. THE LARGE STUDIO ITSELF HAS A STRIKING ARCHED BRICK CEILING, A HUGE FIREPLACE, A COMFY SOFA, AND GOOD SOUND-ISOLATING WINDOWS. IT'S JUST A GREAT PLACE TO MAKE MUSIC.WHEN I TIRED OF BEING BY MYSELF, I LIKED HANGING OUT WITH MY FRIENDLY AND STIMULATING COLLEAGUES. IT'S GOOD FOR COMPOSERS TO GET AWAY FROM OUR SPECIFIC CONCERNS AND INTERACT WITH PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT DISCIPLINES. I OFTEN FOUND THAT THE EXCHANGES IN THE WEEKLY PROJECT DISCUSSIONS WOULD FEED BACK INTO MY OWN WORK.ABOVE ALL, I ENJOYED HAVING LONG BLOCKS OF UNSCHEDULED TIME TO WORK. AND IT WAS GREAT TO BE ABLE TO DECIDE, A
