Guest Artists Space Foundation (G.A.S.), in partnership with the Yinka Shonibare Foundation (Y.S.F.), is thrilled to announce the fourth edition of the prestigious fully funded G.A.S. Fellowship Award. This year’s call, the largest to date, offers five residencies for Nigerian based and diaspora artists/writers and three residencies for artists based in the United States. These opportunities are open to outstanding emerging to mid-career arts professionals.

Join us at G.A.S. Lagos on December 12th, 2025 for Cultivating Your Creative Purpose, featuring a screening of The Salt of the Earth, a film by German filmmaker and photographer Wim Wenders and Brazilian filmmaker Juliano Ribeiro Salgado, followed by a guided dialogue on developing an artistic practice with Kwadwo Asiedu. The 2014 documentary follows acclaimed photographer Sebastião Salgado, whose striking black-and-white images have chronicled major moments in recent history. Through the film, viewers will encounter Salgado’s remarkable journeys across continents and his profound engagement with humanity, environment, and storytelling.

Originally aired live during the 2025 Re:assemblages Symposium, this segment, now available on YouTube, offers on-the-ground coverage, audience engagement, and key moments that shaped the event’s atmosphere and discussions.
