PINEA is an Artist in Residence Program located 
in Cádiz Bay, in the coastal district of Rota, 
Southern Spain.

PINEA is an A.I.R. program for artistic research, 
production, meetings and exhibitions. A place for 
artists working in site specific projects whose 
aim is to dynamically contribute to improve the 
town, by involving the community in an active way.

PINEA aims to stimulate creativity through 
interaction with the local environment, artists 
and cultural institutions, and seeks to foster 
cross-cultural relations between participants and 
the local community.

STUDIOS & ACCOMMODATION:
PINEA art space is located in a 1 950' building 
strategically located between the town's historic 
centre and the local natural spaces as beaches, 
pine forests and dunes. The shared Art Space can 
accommodate up to three artists, and are equipped 
with Wireless Internet Connection, three studios 
/ bedrooms, two andalusian terraces (patios) for 
meetings, relaxing and working, and library & 
multi-space, a full equipped kitchen and three 
bathrooms.
We offer to artists in residence the possibility 
to live in their studios, which are provided with 
single bed. The accommodation is not a rental 
apartment, but a free courtesy for artists in 
residence memberships. However, 
artists-in-residence can opt to rent and pay by 
themselves their own accommodation in a different 
location (for example if they don't want to live 
and work in the same space or if they want to be 
accompanied by friends or relatives). Anyway, in 
both cases, the artist-in-residence membership 
dues are the same.

GALLERY: PINEA celebrate the artists in residence 
final events in the full equipped exhibition 
space located in a historic building in the city 
center.
