Artist in Residency Program

The Residencia Corazón – Artist in Residency (A-I-R) Program was initiated in 2006. Its main objective is to foster a personalized and independent exchange among regional, national, and international artists.

The resident or visiting artists enjoy a dynamic and vibrant time frame for working, with a studio and living space at their disposal to complete their projects. They also network with and within the local art community, cultural institutions, and the public at large.

Fees and Support

Residencia Corazón has a fee (starting from USD $600 per month) and is an independent project with institutional support. However, it is currently unable to provide financial support for visiting artists. For artists applying for grants and scholarships in their home country, Residencia Corazón can provide official documents and letters of invitation as necessary. Residencia Corazon has the institutional support of the National Culture Secretary, Cultural Institute of the Province of Buenos Aires, the Town Council of La Plata, and the National University of La Plata.

Expectations Towards the Artist

Each artist, curator, or writer receives exclusive and highly-personalized support from the Residencia Corazón team. The team provides support for all aspects of the residency, from navigating La Plata and its surroundings to finding local resources, curators, and information about daily life as well as the local arts scene. They also assist with research, Programs 2 & 3, which are recommended for artist-curators-writers who wish to develop research-investigation projects or works in progress in a creative, personal, and quiet environment, ideal for writing and thinking about projects that have been postponed or new ones.
