Offener Aufruf 2026 - Insel Sardinien, Italien

Nocefresca is the first active and permanent artistic residency program in Sardinia. It is a series of houses and outdoor spaces that welcome creative professionals from all over the world to the rural villages of Sardinia for research and creative experimentation, involving both participants and local communities in a cultural exchange experience. By inviting a limited number of artists in areas far from the tourist coasts, Nocefresca creates a sustainable experience able to contribute to the territory and support it in the periods when it experiences less tourist flow and it is therefore the most authentic and beautiful. The residency is primarily self-directed and, as an artist, you are expected to be self-sufficient in your practice. However, Nocefresca organises some activities to help you fuel your artistic process: – Presentation of each one’s practice to the group – Individual and group meetings with the curator for assistance and feedback – Opportunity to propose site-specific projects, talks and workshops – Final open-studio event, open to the public – Every month, a local person of our choosing takes the artists to his/her favourite places in the village of Milis and outside of it (transportation included) – Screening of films, visiting artists and social activities with the local community are extra activities that can happen spontaneously during the residency Extra trips (beaches, nature, archeological sites, towns ecc) are not included and a car is necessary if you want to access them easily, as public transport only connects some of the main centers and rarely goes to natural spots.
