The city of Valladolid (Spain) opens a new call addressed to artists from ‘CreArt. Network of Cities for Artistic Creation’ and will select three visual artists from other cities who wish to work on their artistic projects for eight weeks in Galerías VA in Valladolid, between 21 October to 13 December 2024.
The selection criteria will seek to represent the quality and diversity of the different visual arts. There is no age limitation. However, it is necessary to have a degree in an artistic field at the university level (or, alternatively, prove an equivalent ability through an artistic career).
During the residency, an Open Studio will be organised for the local press, as well as an ephemeral exhibition (around 5 days long) in Galerías VA for the general public with the final works (selected by the mentor and the organisation).
The artist applying for the residency must have been born or live in one of the cities in the CreArt 3.0 network: Kaunas (Lithuania), Liepaja (Latvia), Skopje (North Macedonia), Aveiro (Portugal), Valladolid (Spain), Lublin (Poland), Venice ( Italy), Clermont-Ferrand and Rouen (France), Ceske Budejovice (Czech Republic) and Regensburg (Germany). In addition, HDLU (Croatian Association of Visual Artists) members can apply for the residency period. Ukrainian artists apply in cooperation with Lviv Artistic Council Dialogue.
The residency provides the following:
- Travel expenses to Valladolid for artists from other cities in the Network
- Artist fee of 1.500 EUR (NET amount)
- Production costs (if needed) up to 600 EUR
- Accomodation and working studio space
