Colonies differ crucially from these urban bohemias in how Richard Kostelanetz terms “hospitable to counter-bourgeois living,” and that “indicatively, political radicals, often prominent in bohemias, were scarce in artist colonies.”[26]Around this same time in mid-century America, the term ‘artist in residence’ was used to mark a building in New York City. This new work-live studio model came after a series of onerous bureaucratic processes allowing artists to officially occupy non-residential sites.
The ‘social turn’ has infiltrated all components of the art world including residencies: artists now collaborate with communities; institutional hosts of residencies are interested in engagement; and international diploma
