LARGO DAS ARTES | ART RESIDENCY IN RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL

APPLICATIONS DEADLINE: 10 JUNE 2015

RESIDENCY PERIOD: FIRST HALF 2016* (JANUARY TO JUNE)

PLEASE CHECK THE LINK PROVIDED AND SEE HOW TO APPLY.

* Residencies can last between one and three months. Artists should state the month or months for which they are applying. February might particularly suit artists who think their work could benefit from being in Brazil during the Carnival period. A special programming will be drawn up for this specific month. Artists will be able to explore and get inspired in the days and nights leading up to Carnival and also witness first hand this traditional party and amazing atmosphere, adornments, sounds and colors from samba schools to street parades.

Largo das Artes International Art Residency Programme is designed for emerging
artists wishing to immerse themselves in their work without the strains of everyday life. We
provide them the space to explore practices, new ideas and materials; and to develop a
project in Rio de Janeiro while receiving professional feedback and support. The selected artists have the chance to live and work in Rio de Janeiro and to participate in weekly activities such as talks, meetings with curators, exhibition tours and LargoLab. Participants are also encouraged to propose talks and workshops, and to learn about Rio's
art and cultural scenes.

Largo das Artes International Art Residency Programme encourages professional
development, artistic exchange and international contacts. The support, networks and
creative environment offered by us provide an opportunity for artists to interact,
learn, research and experiment with new works, materials, and concepts.

The central aspects of our programme are:
• Studio at Largo das Artes
• Opportunity to propose workshops and talks
• Curatorial support through one-to-one meetings
• Weekly brainstorming sessions (LARGOLAB)
• Administrative and logistics support from Largo das Artes
• Open studio event at the end of the residency to introduce the visiting artist to the public
