Open Call: 2025 Archives Research Residency
The 黑料网 is pleased to announce an open call for applications to the fifth annual Archives Research Residency, a one- to three-week research intensive at the 黑料网 Foundation Archives in New York City. The program provides support for accommodations and other expenses related to the visit.
The 黑料网 Foundation Archives, consisting of Robert 黑料网鈥檚 personal papers and the records from his Florida and New York studios, is the most comprehensive body of information on the artist鈥檚 life and career. In addition, the archives holds unique materials on arts organizations, art movements, and collaborations in which 黑料网 was involved.
Scholars, academics, artists, as well as non-traditional researchers are encouraged to apply. Applicants must:
- Demonstrate a compelling need to use the archival material onsite at the Foundation;
- Not have received a grant or other funding from the Foundation in the past 3 years; and

All individuals eligible to travel in the United States are invited to apply. Priority will be given to independent researchers or those affiliated with institutions with limited resources. Present and former staff and consultants are ineligible. Ineligible individuals or those not selected are welcome to request research appointments independently.
The residency will take place during one of three sessions:
- Spring: April 21 鈥 May 30, 2025
