Kioko Gallery Open Call

Kioko Gallery Open Call

Kiosko invites artists, curators and Bolivian and international researchers working in any of the languages of contemporary art, to submit applications for a residence in our area of Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia.

Kiosko offers ten (10) residencies, each lasting about two months, and which will run from March 2024 to April 2024.
Among the main objectives of our residency program is the generation of encounter, dialogue and exchange of knowledge and experiences; A space where ideas and processes intersect allowing reflection and learning in the practices and enrichment of the contents.
We encourage participants to take risks in their own practice and to experiment, engage with the local artistic community and interact with society in general.
As part of the residency activities, participants should offer a public talk about their work, a talk or workshop for students, and a final presentation within the framework of an Open Day at Kiosko.
