We are proud to announce the four artists undertaking residencies in 2016

We are very proud to announce the artists invited to undertake the Zabludowicz Collection's 2016 residency programme at Sarvisalo, Finland. This year focuses on painting, inviting four artists with varying approaches to the medium to explore and develop their practice in this unique setting. Ellen Altfest, Matt Connors, Michael Fullerton, and our Annual Commission artist Donna Huanca will spend time at the Zabludowicz Collection's Finnish site working with members of the curatorial team until mid-July 2016.

Since 2010 the Collection has been inviting international artists to the island to undertake residencies as an alternative way of supporting their practice, giving them the time and space to think and create freely, without the immediate pressure of exhibition-making. Spending anywhere from a week to a month on the residency, many of the artists use their time to produce site-responsive works, while others have proposed projects to be realised in the future.
