Through its Residency Program, Videobrasil enables artists and researchers to explore connections and interact with other artists, institutions, and communities in Brazil and other countries. The program includes scholarships and commissioned artwork, favoring a new artistic and cultural geography built upon the transit of artists and researchers.
In its 18th edition, nine artists were awarded with residency prizes in six different countries (Brazil, USA, China, Poland, Mexico and Senegal), after the partnership between the Festival and 12 institutions, which integrate Videobrasil’s Residency Network, as listed below:
