CAPres is the artist-in-residence programme of Corinth Art Platform. CAPres supports artistic research centred on the ethics of hospitality and social design. The aim is to reflect collectively on the role of the artist as a temporary resident. What is the deeper meaning of Artist-in-Residence programmes around the world? Are the participants really just residents, or rather guests, intruders, strangers, mere provocateurs, or something else entirely? There are no formal rules or expectations for participating artists, except that they have to be ‘present’ in the public space of the city in their own creative manner. Current political debates and social conditions, clichés, stereotypes and more, contribute to an enriching exchange between the residents and the hosts. CAPres is not for those who feel comfortable using a pseudo-artistic language of feigned engagement, but for those who are ready to break away from well-established institutional codes of art production. CAPres is ready to work with artists and curators who dare to question their social skills and to push the boundaries of their artistic practice.

The “Kooperativ Ternitz” (“Cooperative Ternitz”) project is organizing an artist-in-residence programme (AIR) in spring 2026. It takes place in a former workers' settlement in Ternitz in Lower Austria/AT. Under the motto “Kooperative Dreiersiedlung” (“Cooperative Dreiersiedlung”), artists and cultural professionals from various disciplines who are interested in supporting the transformation process of the Dreiersiedlung with artistic impulses are invited to apply. The project “Kooperativ Ternitz – New Cooperative Models for Climate-Resilient Settlement Revitalization” accompanies the future development of the Dreiersiedlung, a former workers' settlement in the Lower Austrian municipality of Ternitz. Ternitz is strongly embedded with the history of the steel industry, which, however, has been undergoing structural change and a decline in industrial production since the 1970s. Furthermore, the municipality and former workers' housing estates such as Dreiersiedlung are thus facing new challenges today. “Kooperativ Ternitz” aims to transform the settlement center, infrastructure, public spaces, and forms of mobility in a cooperative manner. As part of this project, three artist residencies for artists and cultural professionals from various disciplines will be awarded in 2026. Kooperativ Ternitz is being implemented by a consortium consisting of Caritas Stadtteilarbeit (Caritas Neighborhood Work), the non-profit housing association Schwarzatal, eins:eins Architektur, Carla Lo Landschaftsarchitektur, Rosinak & Partner, and the municipality of Ternitz. The project is financed by a grant from the Climate and Energy Fund. The Caritas Stadtteilarbeit team is responsible for organizing the residencies and is the contact institution for interested artists during the application and implementation phases. Locals speak mainly German. The project team speaks German, English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French. Under the motto “Cooperative Dreiersiedlung,” three ten-week residencies will take place on site in Ternitz between April 20 and the end of June 2026. The artists will be accommodated in the Dreiersiedlung and will have access to local infrastructure, such as the “Volkshaus”, which is to be used more intensively as a community center in the future. As cooperatively designed art residencies, they will be supported during their stay by the project team and the municipality of Ternitz. They are looking for artists who are interested in using local narratives and/or the current transformation process in the settlement as a starting point for their work. Moreover, for those who are willing to open their artistic practice to residents and neighbors. The aim is to provide contemporary artistic impetus on site that supports the multifaceted transformation process of the Dreiersiedlung and makes cooperative potential visible and accessible. Contributions involving local initiatives, associations, artists, and cultural workers are very welcome. So are contributions that creatively address the following questions of settlement revitalization: What narratives and identities can be found in the settlement, and how can these be continued or reinterpreted? What might local supply and mobility look like in the future? How can the "Volkshaus” be a place for all? What role can art and culture play in future coexistence living? How can community spaces develop sustainably? Criteria • The artists will live and work in the Dreiersiedlung for ten weeks throughout the art residencies (from April 20 to the end of June 2026). • The theme of the artistic work is freely selectable, with reference to the development process of the Dreiersiedlung. • Active collaboration with community representatives, local cultural workers, cultural associations and initiatives, volunteers, clubs, children and young people, and related institutions is desired. • The results of the work done on site must be presented for the first time at the end of the residencies in the Dreiersiedlung. In addition, skill sharing of one's own artistic practice with residents and other interested parties is planned during the art residency.

San Jacinto, in the Montes de María hills surrounded by dry tropical forest, is known for its rich cultural heritage, traditional weaving, and as a birthplace of gaita and cumbia music, including the famous Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto. Located close to Cartagena and Barranquilla, the village hosts vibrant festivals celebrating music, literature, and oral traditions throughout the year. The residency takes place at Casa Matuya, an ecologically built ensemble of clay with handcrafted roofs, situated on the edge of the village within walking distance of San Jacinto’s main plaza. Surrounded by greenery and open landscapes, the house offers a peaceful environment for concentration, reflection, and artistic exchange. Casa Matuya is inhabited and hosted by Mirjam Wirz, whose long-standing engagement with cumbia culture and wide local and international network can become a valuable resource for residents who wish to engage more deeply with the region, its music, and its communities. The residency welcomes visual artists, musicians, performers, writers, and artistic researchers, with a focus on transdisciplinary practice. Matuya provides artist residencies for focused individual work and opportunities for collaboration and exchange within the local cultural context and the natural environment. It is expected that resident artists should have at least a basic knowledge of Spanish. Matuya offers artists space and time to slow down in a bright rural village and welcoming community—fostering focus, openness and meaningful connections.

The Cultural Center of Creació Casa Planas is the result of the efforts of three creatives to restore an old photography factory and transform it into a necessary platform for the city of Palma. Casa Plan promote culture by creating a platform for experimentation, research and creativity. Through visual, musical and scenic art shows that we organize from Casa Planas, there is a constant criticism of the ways of interpreting the culture and the "museification" of it, questioning the formal and aesthetic registers of art. At the Creation Centre Casa Planas, it is available to have research residencies for creators and thinkers around art. The duration varies depending on the needs of the project. Art mediation projects that have a direct social relationship with our field of work and our neighbourhood, or projects that are related to the theme of archives, postcards, landscape, tourism and memory and which bring life into the Casa Planas archive and keep it from falling into oblivion, are especially valued. There is a special focus on the areas of visual media, performance and art mediation. Casa Planas develops workspaces, research processes, the possibility of roundtables, knowledge-sharing workshops, meetings between artists, curators, collectives and other professionals in the sector in this programme.

As CASTRO offers a one-to-one program, the Team members will plan the educational activities (studio visits, field trips, tutorials, group tutorials, CRITS) together with their Fellow during individual meetings. The CASTRO team will evaluate the proposals, agreeing on the possible budget and the modalities of the event. CASTRO offers 5 fellowships that go from the 19th of February to the 23rd of June 2024.
