Description

With a view to supporting artists after their residencies, the Cité internationale des arts partners with organisations that share its objectives and values. As such, in 2019, a partnership agreement was signed between the Cité internationale des arts and the City of Poitiers with the aim of establishing artist residencies in Poitiers.

Under this scheme, two artists, who have previously held residencies at the Cité internationale des arts, will be invited to take up successive residencies at the Villa Bloch each year.

The artist residency is organised for artistic, cultural and educational purposes, aimed at the widest possible audience. Its aim is to create the conditions for a unique experience, fostering an encounter between an artist and the public in a specific region.
