Matienschön, visual arts team at Club Cultural Matienzo, independent cultural venue in Buenos Aires, invites artists who live outside Argentina –active in visual or audiovisual arts, new media, contextual practices and communitary art, or local techniques and disciplines– to partake in a residency program based in an exchange policy principle. The artists will develop an exhibition at Matienschön and stay in houses of the Hospeda Cultura net. Matienschön will provide workshop space, a budget for project expenses, curatorial and technical assistance and some meals. In exchange for this, we ask that the project considers the spatial and social context, and that the artist generates a concrete opportunity for Argentinian artists in their own places of origin.
The residence will take place in a time between three or five weeks, from November 2017 to February 2018. Applications will be received until the 31th of July.
