Contemporary Dance Residency
Comic International Residency
The Contemporary Dance Residency is carried out in collaboration with the Dansateliers Centre for Dance Creation and Exhibition in Rotterdam (The Netherlands). This residency is intended for dance professionals and is carried out in two stages. The first stage, which will take place at Azkuna Zentroa, is focused on the creation and research process of a choreography; and in the second stage, which will take place in Rotterdam, the resident will receive artistic advice and mentoring from the Dansateliers’ team.
Azkuna Zentroak together with Maison de la littérature de Québec (Canada) and Cité internationale de la bande dessinée et de l’image de Angoulême (France) are calling the first Comic International Residency to undertake a graphic narrative project. Each Centre will choose a person from their context. The 3 will take up this Residency jointly at the 3 Centres consecutively. Firstly, in Québec, followed by Angoulême and lastly Bilbao.
Until April 2022
Lanean. Artistic processes support programme Continuous calls for applications
The Lanean call is intended for artists, creators, companies, and collectives with projects which explore new forms of developing artistic practices, framed within the Centre's programme lines and designed to be shared with some of the Centre's public. Through this call, several artistic, cultural and creative projects related to various disciplines will be selected for their development and presentation in different Azkuna Zentroa spaces in the second half of 2021.
The Banco Sabadell Foundation is sponsoring the Azkuna Zentroa - Alhóndiga Bilbao´s Artistic Residencies Programme as part of its efforts to promote and disseminate art and culture.

Getting to know other centres, questioning one’s own space and meeting other people will allow them to redefine both their creative and personal worlds. All 3 cities are crossed by a river which defines their identity, social and cultural habits, and even their economy. This will be the basis of the project to be undertaken by the residents chosen, with which they will be able to rethink these enclaves, their common features and differences, at the same time as they exchange experiences and technical knowledge.
Azkuna Zentroa - Alhóndiga Bilbao’s Artistic Residencies Programme is supported by the Etxepare Basque Institute.
