The Art Gudenky Residence program allows artists to work in the context of another country and another culture.

The Art Gudenky Residence program gives artists the opportunity to create new works, experiment with innovative ideas, and explore new and different ways to create. Artists are invited to explore all our possibilities to gain new experience and discover new directions for the modern ceramist.

The program is open to all artists who want to work independently on their own projects. Artists can spend time on the residence to carry out a specific project or to work in a creative and supportive atmosphere together with other ceramic artists.

We give ceramists and potters the opportunity to experiment and explore new areas in their work. Resident artists can share ideas and experiences through presentations and informal discussions. Time in the studio and studio environment allows you to work intensively without being distracted from everyday worries. Art and life become one - in perfect balance.

Art Gudenky Residence is designed for comfortable simultaneous living of 4 artists. There are many opportunities to chat with other artists, but there is enough space to be alone to reflect on your ideas.
