There are three methods of selection for candidates wishing to obtain a residency at the Cité internationale des arts
French and foreign artists may apply directly to the Cité internationale des arts, which organises different commissions by discipline: the visual arts, music, writing and the performing arts. The selection committees’ members are independent curators and art centre, FRAC, art school, as well as music, theatre and performing arts school directors, in addition to representatives from the Municipality of Paris, the French Ministry of Culture and the Institut français. The commissions select the candidates for residencies by evaluating the artistic aspects of the project and the applicant’s motivations.
The length of each residency is defined in line with the artist’s project. Selected artists are responsible for the costs of their residency.
The call for applications for the Fall 2019 is now open. All the details HERE!
