Two artists can participate at a time. The programme offers them attentive personal support and professional assistance in networking, presenting their work and a double solo exhibition in the gallery at the end of the Artists in Residence programme.
Artists interested in the Berlin Artist Residency Program are advised to seek funding from sponsors or funding organisations at an early stage. A link with a list of funding opportunities for scholarships, travel grants, etc. can be found on the gallery website under “ARTIST RESIDENCY”. Luisa Catucci Gallery will provide all documentation that may be required by the funding agency for the host.
