Constelaciones fellowship
´ace (CABA)-Poliniza (Córdoba)
08.04.24 13.05.24
We are pleased to announce that in 2024, ´ace will once again participate in the Constelaciones programme by QUINCHO | Argentinean Network of Artistic Residencies -of which we are founding members-. This programme offers residency grants to artists from Argentina or foreign artists living legally in Argentina and, this year, also to Spanish artists. In the 2024 edition, ´ace will work in “constellation” with the Poliniza Estudio Residency located in a natural context in Rio Ceballos, Córdoba, Argentina.
ABOUT CONSTELACIONES
Constelaciones 2024 offers a grant for a one-month residency in two artistic residencies in Argentina, members of Red QUINCHO. It is aimed at artists, researchers and curators of all disciplines.
Constelaciones is a programme organised by Red Quincho as an opportunity for artists and curators from all over the country to participate in residencies and generate mobility in our scenes. It is carried out with the aim of working collaboratively, fostering dialogue between the network’s projects and linking different regions. This is a programme of circulation where the residents will be articulating agents between the residency spaces that host them, the communities in which they are inserted and the diverse territories in which they re-locate.
Twenty-eight residencies from all over the country are participating in this programme, who have grouped themselves in pairs, or “constellations”. These constellations respect the singularity and particularity of each of the residencies that make up the network, while at the same time presenting a variety of formats, facilities and territories. In this way, the exchange between the network’s spaces with different characteristics and contexts is encouraged, while each fellowship holder is offered two spaces with different and complementary characteristics to carry out their residency. In this way, the aim is to generate instances of collaboration between the residencies of the constellation and the residents, strengthening the network and its practices.
This grant is developed in partnership with Fundación Williams, plus the support of the Centro Cultural de España en Buenos Aires (CCEBA) and Fundación Santander through the Régimen de Promoción Cultural del Gobierno de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires (Cultural Promotion Regime of the Government of the City of Buenos Aires).
CONSTELACIONES 2024
Poliniza (Córdoba) : October 7th to 20th +
´ace (Ciudad de Buenos Aires): October 21st to November 8th
Public presentation: November 6th
This duo offers the opportunity to live and create in contrasting environments: first, in the natural landscape of Río Ceballos (Poliniza, Córdoba) and then in the metropolis of Buenos Aires (´ace), promoting a sensitive appreciation of the different contexts. With an affective approach to the territory and artistic production, the residency contains instances of research and production. Artists and researchers from all disciplines are invited to explore and respond to cultural, social, environmental and/or urban impact, culminating in a public presentation and/or exhibition of the work developed during the residency period at ´ace.
The selected participant will develop a 4-week residency project, 15 days in each residency. The final week (5th week) will be devoted to the assembly of the presentation. They will have an economic support of ARS $350.0000 for mobility and travel expenses, as well as participation in the chosen programme with accommodation + accompaniment + particularities of materials and equipment of each residency. Participants from Spain will also receive airfare Spain-Argentina-Spain. In addition, the programme provides special support for the residency coordinators to meet with the residents in a face-to-face working session.
