Focusing on visual arts, but encouraging crossings and interactions with other disciplines, the CAA residency programme aims to become an international laboratory for the creation and the diffusion of contemporary art, to present contemporary art in all its diversity, and to offer a permanent dialogue with the developments and the most recent debates of the art world. As such, it aims to become an international laboratory for artists from all over the world. Residents are offered an individual workspace within a framework designed to facilitate the exchange of ideas with the artistic and cultural life of Cyprus. Residents will be asked to spend one day per week for interactions with students and staff at the CAA, for example by offering tutorials, seminars, or other activities. As such, the Residency will provide a unique working environment in which artists can pursue their work and also participate in current debates and research regarding contemporary art practices with students, academics, and others. The residency programme is held at one of the campuses of Cyprus Academy of Arts in the City centre of Limassol. Limassol, located on the southern coast of Cyprus in Limassol, the second-largest city in Cyprus after Nicosia. Situated between the ancient cities of Amathous to the east and Kourion to the west it is a cosmopolitan city with a rich cultural heritage. Known for the centuries-old Limassol Castle, home to the Cyprus Medieval Museum and its collection of pottery and tombstones. On the seafront is the Prokymea (Molos) Sculpture Park, with sculptures by Cypriot, Greek, and international artists. To the northeast is the Limassol Archaeological Museum, exhibiting artifacts from the Neolithic to the Roman periods. The city has incorporated elements of the many empires and kingdoms that have claimed it over centuries stretching back to the Bronze Age.

In the fall of 2018, the Darling Foundry launches Open Access, its new international residency program, developed in response to the growing demand for artistic mobility, while also offering its spaces and residential services to an ever-increasing number of visual artists and curators. A call for applications is open at all times to artists and curators of all nationalities, to offer tailor-made residencies in an inspiring professional context, housed in a 19th century industrial complex. All artists and curators, regardless of nationality and including Canadians, may apply to the Open Access program. Candidates are invited to apply at all times and in return the Darling Foundry commits to provide an answer within two months of receiving the application. Applications will be reviewed by an artistic committee, according to criteria of artistic quality, and relevance of the residency at the proposed time. N.B.: the Open Access residency is to be distinguished from the short-term rental of a studio, as it offers its laureates all the benefits of its other international residency programs, particularly in terms of artistic support, networking and promotion.

Although not always visible, the colonial past is omnipresent. This can also be said about the reverberations of colonialism that emanated from Germany into the world. Berlin wants to face its responsibility as a former colonial metropolis and capital of the German Reich. This is the reason why we have started the Dekoloniale Memory Culture in the City in January 2020 as a cultural project to critically deal with the history of colonialism and its consequences. The model project traces back to an initiative of four member organisations of the civic alliance Decolonize Berlin e.V. and the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe. The Stadtmuseum Berlin Foundation could be attracted as a cooperation partner. The project is thus significantly upheld by stakeholders who for years have been committed to achieving a critical appraisal of colonialism by the city of Berlin. Dekoloniale Memory Culture in the City perceives colonialism as a system of injustice, which always met with resistance of the colonised people. The project picks up on the ever-louder demands for a consistent change of perspective in the post-colonial memory culture. Instead of colonial and colonial-racist stakeholders, from now on the victims and opponents of colonial racism and exploitation are to receive attention and appreciation. Dekoloniale Memory Culture in the City is pleased to announce the third open call for the Dekoloniale Berlin Residency 2023. We invite artists, architects, designers, directors, performers, fashion designers, writers, or urban practitioners to apply for a residency at Dekoloniale Memory Culture in the City of Berlin. Applicants are invited to uncover and transform historical colonial stratifications and dominant narratives in Berlin's public space. The theme of the collaborative exhibit 2023 »ZwischenWelten / BetweenWorlds« of the Dekoloniale exhibition team in collaboration with the district Museum Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf in the Villa Oppenheim will also inform and inspire the interventions of the Dekoloniale artist residencies 2023: ZwischenWelten / BetweenWorlds (working title) Dekoloniale exhibition on anti-colonial networks in Berlin 1918 - 1933 The Treaty of Versailles of 1919 ended Germany's colonial rule in Africa, Asia and Oceania. In the Weimar Republic that followed, Berlin and Hamburg were able to develop into centers that were of global significance for anti-colonial discourse. Until the onset of National Socialist rule, significant migrant diasporic individuals and communities from the African, Asian, and Arab regions resided in Berlin. Coming from different colonial contexts, they became politically active, forming networks and alliances. They raised criticism of racist modes of representation, carried anti-colonial practices into the city, and from here made demands for national self-determination.

DESIGNREGIO Kortrijk and Design Fest Gent join forces and invite you to participate in Designers in Residence Kortrijk 2024, with the theme "All the Small Things." Design Fest Gent (°2022) is a new biennial festival in Ghent that provides space for designers to present groundbreaking ideas. The festival acts as a matchmaker for new collaborations between designers, knowledge institutions, organizations and industry, and above all, shows what sustainable design solutions can look like. Designers in Residence Kortrijk has been organized since 2014 by Designregio Kortrijk, platform for creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship for the Kortrijk region. A region that is part of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN) that breathes design thinking, visible through its design schools, creative manufacturing industry, international events and inspiring public space. The edition of Design Fest Gent 2025 wants to specifically focus on the "little things" and their importance in creating a sustainable future. These little things can relate, for example, to material use, energy consumption, efficiency, recycling, user-friendliness and social responsibility. By paying attention to these small details and integrating them into the design process, the designer not only gains the capacity and creativity to respond quickly to current questions and problems but can also make a positive contribution to the bigger picture of sustainability and a future-oriented perspective. In the search for sustainable design solutions for the future, this edition will explore the possible relationships and synergies between low-tech and high-tech design. Low-tech and high-tech are not opposites, but rather a spectrum where different technologies complement each other; in terms of scale, focusing on the size and scope of a technological system but also in terms of their rapport. By combining low-tech and high-tech, synergies can emerge that leverage the strengths of both approaches.

Domestic Data Streamers started on the 22nd of September 2013 when a team of artists started working together on artistic experiments exploring the relationships between people and information. The principal ideas of what they did still remain the main drivers behind the studio. The team wanted to challenge the way we understand information today and how this can create profound change in the way we behave as humans. An experimental residency on data, music, writing and new media at the heart of Barcelona. Hey Human! is a nonprofit artists-in-residence program that provides time and space for inventors, artists and researchers to create, experiment, and cultivate new directions in their practice.
