Get matched →This residency is intended for an artist or collective working in the field of visual arts related to printing (publishing, graphic design, typography, illustration, etc.) whose work explores social, ecological, and political issues. The residency is dedicated to graphic creation in a broad sense, considering the technical specificities of the residency location. The printing facilities and tools are provided, along with professional technical and operational support. The creative work should include a component of inquiry and experimentation, whether in its form, content, or dissemination. The residency will be made visible through the most appropriate means depending on the project (exhibition, publication, presentation, meeting, etc.). This residency is supported by the Bourgogne Franche-Comté Region and the DRAC Bourgogne Franche-Comté.
The association La fraternelle operates within the Maison du Peuple de Saint-Claude, a historic 4000 m2 building that carries a living memory of 19th and 20th-century worker and political utopias. Since 1984, the venue has been dedicated to artistic creation, dissemination, and production in the fields of cinema, performing arts, music, heritage, and visual arts. The association supports artistic and cultural education actions for all audiences. Today, the venue includes: the archives of the Maison du Peuple with a permanent exhibition, three cinema rooms (the largest also hosts performing arts performances), a visual arts space (art editions in screen printing and typography, educational workshops and mediation), a café with music, dance, theater programming and various events, exhibition spaces, rehearsal rooms, a shop, and an intercommunal art library.
