Casa RARO Barcelona - Open Calls

Casa R.A.R.O. Barcelona, an international artist program that fosters the exchange, creation, and dissemination of contemporary artistic projects. We would love to explore the opportunity for collaboration with your magazine to reach artists, curators, and cultural managers who may be interested in our ongoing Open Calls and Residency Programs.

 

Our open calls are for various residency opportunities in our Barcelona-based studios. Residents work closely with the entire R.A.R.O. team, benefitting from dedicated studio space, peer support and collaboration, as well a series of enriching activities, such as talks, meetings, and exhibitions, which complement their projects.

VII Puchi Award

La Casa Encendida and Fulgencio Pimentel present the seventh edition of the Puchi Award.

Puchi Award is open to the most unique book proposals in the field of comics and illustrated books, as well as any hybrid projects.

Puchi Award launches its next call for applications with a renewed approach, eminently graphic, and a biennial periodicity, also increasing its financial endowment to 10,000 euros.

Puchi Award is aimed at audacious projects with their own personality and evident artistic interest, in which images play a principal role, never an accessory or complementary one, in the narrative or exhibition development of the work.

The last call-out in 2024: Subversion Matters

Isla de Crear is a creative centre, combining a range of different disciplines in order to

explore creating and crafting in a new method, away from commercial constraints or industry guidelines, based on the principles of the Fantasism manifesto.

For our last call-out in 2024, we are looking for artists, craftspeople, thinkers and creatives from all different fields to explore the theme: Subversion Matters

We are purposefully keeping the theme as broad as possible, and encourage you to think as tangentially as possible. We are not looking for the same ol’ works, but instead want to encourage all our visiting creatives to challenge themselves into doing new things and exploring new forms.
