Self-directed residency in a medieval Tuscan village — Banditto Art
Montefollonico
Banditto is an independent artist residency in Montefollonico, a walled medieval village in the Val d'Orcia in southern Tuscany. It offers self-directed residencies for visual artists, writers, and performers in a setting that prioritises quiet, focus, and the particular quality of light and landscape that characterises this part of Italy. Residencies are flexible in length and structure. Artists work independently in private studios, with accommodation in the village. The surrounding countryside — vineyards, cypress avenues, hilltop towns — is both a working context and an amenity. Montefollonico is a short drive from Montepulciano and Pienza, and roughly two hours from both Florence and Rome.
Interdisciplinary residency for live arts in Venice — C32
Venice
C32 is run by Live Arts Cultures, an international network supporting artists working across performance, visual art, installation, and experimental disciplines. Based in Venice, it offers residency periods for artists whose practice benefits from the specific conditions of the city — its spatial constraints, its water-bound geography, and its relationship to spectacle and display. Residencies are structured around the Venice Biennale cycle, making C32 particularly relevant for artists interested in the international contemporary art conversation. The programme includes studio time, public presentations, and regular exchange with the broader Live Arts network. Best suited to interdisciplinary practitioners and those working in time-based or site-responsive forms.
Contemporary art residency in the South Tyrol mountains — BASIS
Schlanders
BASIS is a contemporary art space and residency program in Schlanders, in the Vinschgau valley of South Tyrol. It supports artists working in contemporary and experimental disciplines, offering studio space and accommodation in a mountain setting at the cultural crossroads of Italy and Austria. South Tyrol's bilingual, bicultural character — Italian and German — gives it a distinct atmosphere unlike anywhere else in Italy. The Vinschgau valley is one of the most dramatic in the region, with the Ortler massif visible from the studio windows. Bolzano, with its strong contemporary art institutions including the Museion, is about an hour away. The program is connected to a broader network of Alpine and Central European art spaces.
Farm residency for artists in the Po Valley — Cascina Dell'Arte
Crescentino
Cascina Dell'Arte is an artist residency on a working farm in the Po Valley of Piedmont, near the town of Crescentino. It offers studio space and accommodation in a rural agricultural setting for artists working across disciplines. The program emphasises connection between creative practice and the landscape — the flat, river-threaded plains of the Po are a very different Italy from the Tuscan hills or the Roman urban context. Artists who have worked here describe the surrounding flatness and the light as unexpectedly generative. Turin is approximately 45 minutes away and offers access to a strong contemporary art scene, including the Fondazione Sandretto and Castello di Rivoli.
Independent studio residency in central Florence — Chiasso Perduto
Florence
Chiasso Perduto is an independent artist residency and studio space in the historic centre of Florence. It offers working residencies for visual artists and creatives who want access to Florence's museums, archives, and artistic heritage while maintaining a self-directed, non-institutional practice. The residency is deliberately small-scale and informal. Artists work in private studios, with accommodation nearby. Florence's density of public collections — the Uffizi, Bargello, Museo dell'Opera del Duomo — makes it a useful base for artists whose practice is in dialogue with art history, material culture, or craft traditions. Best for artists who want the city, not the countryside.
Residency in historic Rome with on-site ceramics studio — CRETA Rome
Rome
C.R.E.T.A. Rome (Center for Residencies and Exhibitions of The Arts) is an international center for ceramics and art located in the historic center of Rome. The association runs short and medium-term residencies for visual artists and writers from around the world, with an on-site ceramics studio, private workspaces, and a public-facing programme. Residencies are typically 2-4 weeks. Artists work in private studios, can take optional ceramics classes, and participate in regular studio visits and exhibitions organized by CRETA. The historic center location puts residents within walking distance of major museums, artist-run spaces, and Rome is living archaeological context. Best for artists interested in working with clay or in dialogue with Rome is long material-culture tradition.
