Former Artist in Residence

Venezia Contemporanea in cooperation with ScalaMata & La Storta Exhibition Spaces in Venice Italy, offered a fully and partially covered artist’s residency program for 2019-2023.  

Artists are offered with housing in form of a private livable studio and a unique exhibition space with a large show window to the street, professional curatorial support, logistic assistance, networking and publicity on our social media channels and website. Furthermore we provide paid exhibition facilitation service, boat transport and crane by demand. 

This year we received 96 submissions from artists from 27 countries: Australia, China, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, France, Hungary, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Macedonian, Montenegro, Myanmar, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, South Africa, Sweden, and the USA.

Our committee gave out three fully covered residencies and partially covered residencies. The selection criteria of the committee were based on the artists’ artistic merits, their artistic potential, and the stage of their artistic career.

The selected Artists: Meta Drcar, for the fully covered residency. Roisín McGuigan & Peter Hanan, Kevin Jon Benham, Federico Campanale, Fiona Crawford, Eirini Roumpi, for the partially covered residency.

Submission for partially covered residency is open all year around

The full list of the artists receiving the partially residency will be actualized in spring.
