Saint Andrew’s Castle – Nature

In the framework of our Artists in Residence programme, which has been held annually at St. Andrew’s Castle since 2015, painters and land artists are guests of the castle for a whole month, where we provide not only a space for relaxed artistic work but also accommodation and meals for the participant(s).
Inspired by the artwork here, we have given the programme a title, which has remained the same since 2019: The Space of Change
The programme starts each year on the day of the St George’s Day picnic (the Saturday closest to 24 April) and after a month, on the last weekend of May, we organise an exhibition of their work, opened by a well-known art historian.

Description of the area and neighborhood : In the middle of a 7.5-hectare English park, surrounded by forests, lakes and streams, and ancient tree giants, there is a two-story classicist castle. Those who visit here can admire the old chapel and enjoy the comfort of guest houses and wellness facilities that meet the needs of our time. Those who want to change, gather here to get new inspiration, as well as artists who want to create quietly, or those searching for the village and traditions of the Celts who lived in The Place for thousands of years.This is the space of change, but this change does not destroy the old, but preserves the values ​​and adds to them. Center, in the most abstract and at the same time most literal sense of the word, as it always has been. It also gives the visitor the opportunity for a short time to take part in the ranks of the people who live here and the "owners" of the Place, in quotation marks, because we don't actually own such a Place, but live it, receive, give, take part in it and from it.

    Nature - Catamarca (Argentina) - 03/05/2026

    Amarillo es un espacio cultural independiente y residencia artística ubicado en las sierras de Catamarca, en el norte de Argentina. Es un lugar dedicado a la creación, experimentación e intercambio artístico, rodeado de naturaleza, silencio y paisajes bañados por una intensa luz solar. El proyecto combina elementos de un espacio de arte contemporáneo, una casa rural y un estudio en funcionamiento. El espacio es gestionado por un artista contemporáneo local que desarrolla activamente exposiciones y proyectos artísticos. Amarillo se creó para abrir este proceso a otros, invitando a los artistas a compartir una experiencia cultural y expandir la energía creativa de cada proyecto a través del intercambio y la convivencia. Amarillo da la bienvenida a artistas interesados ​​en desarrollar su trabajo en diálogo con la naturaleza, la luz y la tierra. El espacio está especialmente abierto a prácticas relacionadas con la percepción, el trabajo específico del sitio, la instalación, la performance, la fotografía y los procesos experimentales. Se invita a los residentes a tomarse su tiempo, explorar el entorno y desarrollar un proyecto personal. A cambio, se anima a los artistas a compartir algo con el espacio: una obra de arte, un taller, una charla o un simple gesto que conecte su práctica con el lugar. El ambiente es sencillo, tranquilo y colaborativo. Aquí la vida se basa en la convivencia, los momentos compartidos y el respeto por los demás.

    Nature - Montseret (France) - 26/07/2025

    I offer to welcome you to my home which is still under construction but habitable! The space available is enough to set up a quiet working place for your creations. I am also a creator and I am currently looking for new artistic encounters, which can inspire me in this new home which needs to be recharged with good vibrations... Shared kitchen and bathroom too, I just ask that we agree so that everyone feels at ease and comfortable. In France for 13 years, I am of Italian origin and I studied fine arts in Milan. I create jewelry and I make paintings...solar and bear, I am attentive and respectful of everyone's needs for solitude or sharing 😉 Rivers, sea and wild nature are not far away.
