Artists Residency
AG is pleased to present a project long awaited: Alzueta Gallery’s Artists Residency (AGAR)
An artist residency program in the Empordà, near the Costa Brava. Right next to our gallery in the countryside, Palau de Casavells.
A studio for each artist, located in a wonderful setting in the Catalan countryside; a 500m industrial building to work in and a private apartment in the city center of La Bisbal; contacts with collectors and studio visits, will complete the program of activities in our residencies.
We want to bring our exhibition project closer to artists from the 5 continents, we want them to be able to exchange experiences and projects with our current artists, we want to help produce and create the art of our time. We hope that the Alzueta Gallery – Artists Residency program will be one of the elements of articulation of our gallery in the international contemporary art scene.
