About the foundation
Studio Alta is an independent, non-profit arts organization based in Prague, Czech Republic, dedicated to supporting contemporary art and critical discourse. Founded in the early 2010s, it emerged from a need for a sustainable, process-oriented residency that prioritizes experimentation over production. The organization operates a residency program that invites artists, curators, and theorists to develop projects in a supportive, non-commercial environment, often culminating in public presentations or publications. Its ethos is rooted in fostering dialogue, risk-taking, and long-term engagement with local and international communities.
Funding opportunities
3 listedApplication guidance
Applicants should demonstrate a clear need for a residency period focused on research and development rather than finished production. Proposals that articulate how the time and context of Prague will inform the work are favored. The selection committee looks for genuine curiosity and a willingness to engage with the local context, not just a list of past achievements. Include a realistic timeline and budget, and avoid overly polished project descriptions that leave no room for process. Applications are typically open annually; check the website for specific deadlines and requirements.
