guidance of a mentor and the active participation 
of a guest, the residency modules developed for 
2016 focus on three new macro topics wich are: 
research, gift and alteration. Kicking off in 
April, over the first 7 modules, the programme 
saw the participation of 50 residents, including 
established professionals and exceptionally 
gifted individuals currently completing their BA, 
MA or PhD degrees, representing 18 nationalities 
worldwide. They are visual and performance 
artists, curators, architects, critics, PhD 
candidates, anthropologists, museum 
professionals, etc.
