Asia Pacific Performance Exchange (APPEX)
Description
The Asia Pacific Performance Exchange (APPEX) is an international musicians and artists residency program that promotes cross-cultural and interdisciplinary understanding; develops rigorous strategies for art-making reflecting the nuances of cultural differences; and fosters new ways to experiment, collaborate, and interpret artistic expression. Since its inception in 1995, APPEX has brought together more than 100 traditional and contemporary musicians and performing artists from throughout Asia -- from Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Myanmar, Philippines and Vietnam -- and the United States for intensive residency sessions on the campus of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). A total of five writers and twenty artists will be chosen as Fellows on a competitive basis. Each fellow will receive room and board, roundtrip travel to LA, and a stipend.
