Estudio Chapulín — OPEN CALL I MÉXICO CITY Art Week Season Residency l January-February 2027

Overview
Estudio Chapulín, an independent residency based in Mexico City, has issued an open call for its January–February 2027 residency, timed to coincide with Mexico City Art Week. The residency is open to practitioners working in photography, painting, sculpture, dance, and visual art, with a particular emphasis on photography. This convergence with one of the Americas' most significant art weeks offers residents a unique context for production and reception, embedding their practice within a dense network of exhibitions, institutions, and collectors. The residency provides a period of focused studio time in a city renowned for its vibrant cultural ecosystem. While the exact terms of the residency—including facilities, duration, and any financial arrangements—are not specified in the available information, the rolling deadline suggests a flexible, ongoing selection process. Artists are encouraged to inquire directly with the organization for detailed guidelines and materials required for application. Curatorially, the residency appears to favor practices that engage with the urban fabric and contemporary dialogues of Mexico City, particularly those that intersect with photography and visual art. The alignment with Art Week indicates a potential for public engagement or networking opportunities, though specifics remain undisclosed. This call is best suited for artists whose work is conceptually rigorous and responsive to site, and who can navigate the complexities of a self-directed residency in a foreign context.
