The CAAA Centre for Art and Architecture Affairs is a nonprofit cultural institution whose mission is to support and encourage artistic creation and application of new methods of production, promoting the interaction between the various fields of artistic expression – visual arts, design, film, literature, media and performing arts – and architecture, generating discussion and collaboration between different artistic and technological platforms, both by sharing a physical space as in the involvement in cultural programming.
The Artistic Residence Program offers the opportunity to emerging artists/performers/architects/curators to propose and curate a project related to CAAA philosophy – the collaboration between different artistic platforms in order to create new interdisciplinary opportunities and confrontations.
