Artist Residencies in Gimpo-si

CICA

Gimpo-si, South Korea

The Czong Institute for Contemporary Art (CICA) is a distinctive cultural space and museum founded in 1994 in Gimpo-si, South Korea. Originating from an artist's studio, CICA has evolved over 25 years through the dedication of artists and their collective efforts. It offers an itinerant residency program that spans across Buenos Aires and Madrid, allowing artists to work in multiple ateliers. This program supports a wide range of disciplines, providing artists with studio space and the opportunity for solo exhibitions. CICA aims to decentralize contemporary art dissemination, introducing local artists and cultures to a global audience. Through collaborations with cities and educational institutions, CICA has established annual conferences and exhibitions that foster a global network among artists. The residency is designed for artists, curators, and cultural managers seeking immersive, collaborative experiences. CICA's initiatives reflect its commitment to nurturing creative practices and facilitating cultural exchanges.
