THE ITALIAN EMERGENT FELLOWSHIP
The Italian Emergent Contemporary Art Fellowship
The Italian Emergent Contemporary Art Fellowship is a valuable opportunity for an early-career Italian artist who has recently concluded Italian art education.
CASTRO offers a 22sqm studio space, monthly tutorials and regular interviews with the Team at CASTRO. During the interviews the Team members will agree on studio visits, workshops with local artisans and guided tour of the city on the base of the fellows interests and practice.
During their stay, the Fellow will have the opportunity to organise a talk or lecture at CASTRO to either present their practice or as a tool to further their research.
