The candidates had to apply for the 2 December 2013. Fonds Belval received 28 appliances.

Six candidates have been preselected by the artistic advisory board. One candidate withdrew her appliance.

Five candidates remained :

- Martin Guinard (F)
- Michael Pinsky (GB) et Stéphanie Delcroix (F)
- Thibaut de Ruyter (F)

The five candidates were invited to present their project in a public hearing on 3 February 2014.

After deliberation, the artistic advisory board selected the french-british curator duo Stéphanie Delcroix and Michael Pinsky for the mission of director of residency. The choice has been approved by the administrative board of Fonds Belval.
