Cripta747 invites artists, curators and researchers active in Italy or abroad to participate in the call for proposal for the seventh edition of the Residency Programme, a research residency with scholarship to be held in Turin in the months of September - December 2023 .

Cripta747 Residency Program is aimed at those who demonstrate strong, coherent and recognizable research both in the conceptual development and in the material production of the work. The residency enhances the research process and redefines the methods of diffusion of artistic, critical and curatorial practices in a context free from exhibition constraints. The program is structured in such a way as to encourage study and research by facilitating access to the historical-cultural, bibliographic and archival heritage as well as to the productive fabric of the territory, through meetings with professionals, studios, experts and craftsmen present in city.

The projects presented do not necessarily have to be concluded by the end of the stay in Turin, but on the contrary this moment of residency should represent a first phase of research for a broader work. Particular attention will be paid to proposals that show a transdisciplinary attitude and open up to areas of knowledge that are not strictly related to the artistic one.

During the application phase, candidates are invited to submit a proposal outlining the specific research they intend to develop in the residency, specifying the benefits expected from this experience and imagining possible collaborations for the development of the project. In addition, the candidate is required to propose an idea for an event to be held by the end of the residency (workshop, seminar, screening, performance, etc…) which directly involves the public and allows sharing practices, visions and experiences with them .

The winner will be selected by a scientific committee that will support the Cripta747 curatorial team for the entire season and will accompany the artist in residence.
