Pro Helvetia Residency Prize
Switzerland — Residencies
On the occasion of the launch of the «COINCIDENCIA – Swiss & South American Cultural Exchanges» (2017-2020) programme in São Paulo on 7 October 2017, Sabina Schwarzenbach, then ad-interim director of Pro Helvetia, awarded a three-month residency prize in Switzerland, at Villa Ruffieux, to the La Decanatura collective formed by Colombian artists Diego Pineros and Elkin Calderon.
La Decanatura was selected by an international jury from among the artists present at the festival. Through their roles as mediators and facilitators, La Decanatura seeks to create points of contact between artistic projects, their public and everyday life.
