The Black Brazil Art announces call for the second edition of Shared Virtual Artist Residency (RAVC).

The residency has mentors from Brazil, France, Uganda, United Kingdom, Portugal and United States. Inscription: Enrollment takes place until 15 August 2022 by site blackbrazilart.com.br/ravc2.

The second edition is organized in a context of a world shaken by the Covid-19 crisis that still persists and by the migratory processes forced in the world by wars and conflicts. “Covid-19 reminded us, inversely, how much the ecosystem of the arts, and in particular exchanges via residences, are linked to a crucial common good, freedom of movement – the flows we make”, points the curator Patricia Brito.

The residence opens creative spaces for awareness of the “exodus” contemporary and will develop theoretical-practical reflections from an artistic point of view to think collectively about socially engaged and relational artistic practices at the same time. Registration costs between Rs. 65,00 (individual) e R$ 150,00 (groups of up to five people) and are open to artists, curators, researchers, educators, activists, among others. Spaces are limited and the residency lasts for three months..
