Proyecto La Zona

About

Proyecto La Zona is an innovative artist residency nestled within the forest reserve of El Marquesado, 40 km from the coastal city of Mar del Plata, in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. This residency offers a unique retreat for artists and creative professionals from various disciplines to engage in artistic creation and interdisciplinary exploration. The program is designed to foster immersive research, thinking, and creation, facilitated by the isolation and bioinspired landscape away from urban centers. La Zona's residency programs, including both winter and spring sessions, emphasize the relationship between artists and the natural environment, encouraging participants to explore contemporary socio-political and environmental concerns. The residency provides a supportive space for experimentation, with activities guided by specialists in territory observation, ecology, history, and local culture. Visits to galleries and artists' studios are organized to foster a network of exchange that benefits both residents and the local community.
