Cité internationale des arts: Art, Society and Clinical Psychology Residency 2027 (France)

Overview

Launched in 2025 by the Françoise Association and the Cité internationale des arts, this research and creative residency programme explores the links between contemporary art, psychiatry and the humanities. Conceived as an open research space, this programme is not a therapeutic programme. It is open to artists of all nationalities whose practice resonates with the notion of the 'clinical'—a situated approach as close as possible to the subject. Within the context of the residency, this approach shifts towards the artistic field: creation is envisaged here as a grounded, relational practice, attentive to the contexts in which it takes shape.

Eligibility

Open to artists and creators from any discipline, mid-career or established stage, and of any nationality. No age limit. Artistic practice should resonate with the notion of 'clinical' approach.
