Open Call for Taragaon Next Artist in Studio Program!
We’re excited to announce a 1-month studio program at the iconic Taragaon Studio, designed by Pritzker Prize winner Shigeru Ban.
Formerly the Nepal House Project, this structure was designed by Pritzker Prize winner Japanese architect Shigeru Ban in 2015, as a resilient prototype in response to a devastating earthquake of 7.8 magnitude in the region.
Today, this prototype is rediscovered as a studio space, a dynamic laboratory for artists to reflect, work, and create with diverse mediums and techniques. This semi-equipped space provides the perfect environment for you to create and innovate, with dedicated support along the way. Contemporary artists are invited to experiment and further their practice, under the careful mentorship of our team.
For each iteration, an artist is selected through a democratic and inclusive open-call process.
At the end of their studio term, each artist’s work is exhibited at our Gallery space, furthering their exposure towards new audiences.
Don’t miss this chance to elevate your art in this unique setting!
Please note that this residency does not include a living space. The artist must be from Kathmandu to be eligible.
