c.r.e.t.a. rome offers self-funded residencies to ceramicists and
visual artists for periods ranging from 6-12 weeks. The residency
includes a semi-private equipped studio, private/shared apartments in
the historical center of Rome, and a final show for the exhibition of
work produced during the residency.
Artists will
have the opportunity to focus on their art, whether it be creating a new
body of work, expanding a well-established oeuvre or allowing
themselves to draw inspiration from their surroundings and the centuries
of culture that define the eternal city. In addition, artists will have
access to the wealth of galleries and exhibitions in Rome and beyond.
Each resident will have an opportunity to present a proposal to exhibit
the work produced during the residency period in a final show.

A
selection committee composed of artists, art critics and historians
carefully evaluates applicants based on their artistic experience, merit
and project proposal. Applications should be sent electronically to
[email protected] and should include the following by 1 October 2013:

curriculum vitae
artist statement (250 words max)
project proposal (500 words max)

10 images (jpeg or pdf) and an image list with year, materials and dimensions
preferred residency period
