Residency of the Ljubljana Biennale of Graphic Arts

The Ljubljana Biennale of Graphic Arts, one of the oldest biennales in the world, was founded in 1955. With its activities, it positioned Ljubljana and Slovenian art into a global context, influenced the development of many similar events around the world and created an active network for the exchange of experience in the field of the graphic arts. After 2001, with the introduction of the curatorial approach, it went beyond the limitation to a single medium and began to develop into a museum and extra-museum mirror of contemporary art and curating.

The residency is intended for participating artists and curators of each Biennale edition; depending on the Biennale theme, the invitation is sent by the International Centre of Graphic Arts directly to the Biennale collaborators, thus enabling them to stay in Ljubljana for research and production purposes. After the Biennale, the residency is also awarded to the artist who receives the jury prize for a one-month research residency at the Biennale.
