culturia is a residency programme based in Berlin, Germany for artists and researchers who are engaged with alternative ways of producing work. culturia is an intersection of Berlin-based & international artist networks and researchers.

culturia has been building its networks since 2005 and has progressively continued to expand and develop its links with artists and other arts organisations. It started out from a residency that used temporary spaces in Berlin. It developed into an experimental place where the practice of exploring artistic processes became the key concept.

The purpose of this residency is to provide artists and researchers the space and facilities needed to further develop their practices and focus on the concept of artistic processes. In 2011, culturia started a project collection (non-material collection) exploring self-awareness in relation to the artist with his/her work.

The residency period lasts up to three months, and can accommodate up to four people at a time.

culturia is a unique residency programme. It exists as both an artist residency and a non-material collection of artists and researchers involved in a deeper way of thinking about art. It is a place for exchanging knowledge, sharing personal beliefs & aesthetic strategies and is open to artists and researchers working in various disciplines.
