As part of its mission to support creative practice and to provide information for professionals working in the field, the Centre national des arts plastiques (CNAP) publishes 196 Residencies in France, a practical guide to residencies for artists, curators, critics, art theorists and art historians. It is one of the CNAP’s Guides to Contemporary Art, which are aimed at all those working within the CNAP’s scope.
196 Residencies in France responds to requests for information on residencies and the way they operate. An accessible and user-friendly resource for professionals, it is obtainable in print, free of charge, at all contemporary art venues in France - and for free download in English and in French.
