Medici Residency
with La Ménagerie de verre
This residency program is not open to applications.
La Ménagerie de verre and Villa Medici launched a cross-residency program in 2024, with the aim of welcoming one associate artist in Rome and one resident in Paris each year, with a particular focus on choreographic and performance artists. Each year, a choreographer – either an associate artist or in residence at La Ménagerie de verre – is welcomed at Villa Medici for a research and writing residency lasting a maximum of one month. La Ménagerie de verre, for its part, welcomes and makes its spaces available to an artist – a resident of Villa Medici- wishing to develop a performance project for a maximum period of one month.
La Ménagerie de Verre
Since its creation in 1983, La Ménagerie de verre has established itself as a veritable laboratory for experimentation in contemporary dance, theater and visual arts. With a focus on artistic creation, La Ménagerie de verre offers artists the opportunity to venture into innovative projects. Within the same structure, La Ménagerie de verre offers vast workspaces: two studios of over 200 m2 (Wigman and Balanchine), spaces for more intimate work (Duncan, Diaghilev and Cocteau) and a 360 m2 space for raw experimentation (salle OFF). La Ménagerie de verre offers a dynamic framework for the professionalization of artistic projects in the heart of a place rich in artistic emulation.
