3rd Artist Residency Programme

Usina Luis Maluf is pleased to be holding the 3rd edition of the Luis Maluf Artist Residency Programme. Coordinated by curators Agnaldo Farias and Priscyla Gomes, the project has selected 12 visual artists for this immersive experience at the gallery’s headquarters in São Paulo’s Barra Funda neighbourhood: Aline Moreno, Ana Raylander Mártis dos Anjos, Ana Rorras, Desirée Feldmann, Isis Gasparini, João Cardoso, Liliana Sanches, Luciana Rique, Rafael Amorim, Sabrina Savani, Talita Hoffmann, Vinicius Lopes.

The project, which received more than 500 applications, aims to train young talents and consolidate them in the artistic market. Applications were open between 27 October and 26 November 2023, via an online form available on the gallery’s website. The results were announced on 11 December.

The first edition of the Artist Residency took place in June 2021, marking the inauguration of Usina Luis Maluf, the gallery’s second space in the city, which continues to maintain its first address in the Jardins neighbourhood. The space emerged as the realisation of the gallery’s artistic project, based on the triad of education, promotion and encouragement. The residency reinforces LMGA’s commitment to artistic training and the democratisation of access to art, considering itself a space for construction, debate and access to the plurality of Brazilian culture.

In addition to providing an environment for experimentation, it contributes to the development of new ideas or the realisation of art projects.
