London’s Delfina Foundation is one of the United Kingdom’s best known artist-in-residence programmes. The Foundation’s purpose is to promote artistic exchange and experiment. Delfina offers visual artists and curators a platform to carry out research, develop ideas and position their practices within the global discourse. Delfina not only introduces its residents to the London art scene, but also to their extensive international network.
Delfina Foundation is housed at 29-31 Catherine Place, in centre of London, close to Buckingham Palace. There is space for 6 to 8 international residents. Each resident has their own room, sharing the kitchen and sanitary facilities.
The residency programme begins with a series of visits to museums, galleries and non-profit platforms. As the residents visit these venues, they get to know one another and discuss their own work and that of others. During the working period, discussions are organized with artists who live and work in London. Portfolios are discussed with curators and a networking lunch is held regularly. Residents are expected to take part in these activities.
Delfina Foundation in partnership with the Mondriaan Fund is delighted to announce a residency open call for visual artists and curators who are Dutch or based in the Netherlands.
Applications for a three-month residency are open, taking place at Delfina Foundation: 22 September – 14 December 2025.
