International Deadline: July 15, 2018 – Catalyst Art
Retreat is a unique opportunity for artists looking to reignite their
creative spark. We have designed immersive travel art residencies
allowing each artist to dedicate time to their individual practice while
working alongside artist peers from around the world. During the week
we facilitate creative activities and art salon discussions. Each
retreat culminates in a final exhibition where the artists can share
their work with the local art community.Our vision is for artists without a full-time practice to feel
encouraged and empowered. We want artists to know there are meaningful
ways to engage with the art world while maintaining a full-time job or
devoting time to family. We envision a global community of Catalyst
artists who value travel as a conduit to inspiration and want to support
each other in carving out their own individual spaces in the art world. SUMMER EDITION Imagine swimming in marble-bouldered rivers (Seravezza),
cooling dips and beers at the Casa Berti pool, and long warm evenings
dining beneath a pergola with one of the best views in the world. You’ll
have access to a huge art studio beautifully lit with east and north
facing windows. OR find a spot in the expansive grounds to use as your
workspace. On the last evening we’ll host the Catalyst Art Exhibition
followed by a celebratory dinner. Visual artists, illustrators, textile artists, photographers, digital
artists, crafters, makers, writers, musicians, and performers are
welcome. We welcome creatives at any skill level, but studio time will be
self-directed. An artist mentor is available to lend a hand or give
light instruction, but attendees are generally working at their own pace
on their own work. The spacious studio is 11 x 5 meters equipped with sturdy work
tables, chairs, a utility sink, and various easels. There is a large
window that opens east to an inspiring Tuscan view, and a huge skylight
that brings in north light. If you have any studio equipment needs
outside of what we already have, we’ll work to arrange something for
you. 2,500€ to 3,000€ single occupancy. 200€ off now through July 15, 2018. Mention ArtDeadline.com during booking. What’s Included: - 6 nights accommodations at Casa Berti
