The project, curated by Leonardo Bigazzi, will be held in Florence in conjunction with the 16th edition of Lo Schermo dell’Arte—Cinema and Contemporary Art Festival, from November 15 to 19, 2023.

Candidates must be visual artists who:
work with moving images as part of their artistic practice

Eight selected artists will be invited to Florence (accomodation included) to develop their own original projects during an intensive programme of mentoring sessions, round tables and individual meetings, in dialogue with international curators and artists. 3 winning projects will receive 10,000 euros each for realization. An artist’s edition of the work produced will become part of the permanent collection of the co-producing institution.
