RESIDENCY
El Avispero Art and its series of artist-in-residence programs aim to invite artists, curators and art historians to a time and space away from their usual social surroundings and everyday obligations. We are a residence removed from the cities, ideal for concentrating on carrying out artistic projects that require meditation and abstraction.
The idea behind the program is to stimulate and facilitate a space where to coexist with other creators, produce works, reflect on an emerging body of work and develop an investigation.
OBJECTIVES
1) Provide the artist with the space, assistance and infrastructure necessary to carry out his work proposal under three modalities: production of a project, exploration of new situations for his artistic practice or intervention in the city and / or community.
2) Promote exchange as a platform for generating new ideas and taking risks through connections with other artists, curators and artistic or civil institutions.
FORMAT
1) Paid residencies: in which the residence fee must be paid by the artist or sponsors from their country of origin. Registration is free and there is two annual calls.
2) Subsidized residences: in this format, residences are the result of previous agreements with cities or national and international institutions. This type of residency is announced from time to time - according to the agreements made - on the page of our website.
