Description

PROARTES MÉXICO began in 2018 driven to support the creation and promotion of Mexican contemporary art and foster the exchange of art and artists between, but not limited to, the USA and MX. Their mission includes managing performing arts tours, curating exhibitions, creating programming, to consulting regarding logistics, visas, granting, developing networking opportunities, and hosting an arts residency in Mexico City.

Apapacho is PROArtes México’s residency and studio space in the heart of Mexico City. This international program of art-based residencies has been launched to provide space and time for artists, curators, art historians, etc, to research and network in one of the most historically and culturally profound cities in the world. As an artist founded and operated space, they strive to provide an increasingly diverse group of artists an affordable international residency experience. The name ‘Apapacho’ reflects their interest is in developing a thoughtful and caring interaction unique to each resident's curiosities, needs, and area of focus.

The residency site is situated in Barrio Del Valle, close to many of the most emblematic neighborhoods, institutions, and historical sites in the Valley of Mexico. The programming of Apapacho consists of residents that have been curated and invited to the space, as well as fully self-funded or partially scholarshipped residencies selected from submitted applications. Unfortunately, scholarships are limited and we are not able to offer scholarships to all applicants. Applicants from the Global South will be eligible for reduced fees.

Outcome

Apapacho is a multipurpose residency space open to curatorial or artistic practice research welcoming emerging, mid-career, and established arts practitioners. The team will meet, via phone or video call, with each person prior to their residency to discuss their objectives. From that meeting we will create a list of pertinent recommendations and foster meaningful connections to attempt to make the most of each resident’s time in CDMX. They welcome a broad spectrum of performing, visual, literary, multidisciplinary, and experimental artists.
