SERDE: Call for artists in residencies The Residency and workshop centre SERDE was founded in small town Aizpute during 2002 as a platform for international and cross-disciplinary collaboration. Our aim is to encourage professional's creative development and long-term cooperation through participation in residency programmes.
The residencies centre is located in the historical centre of Aizpute (~180 km from capital city Riga, 30 km from Baltic sea-coast) and the building complex is unique example of wooden and red bricks architecture in Latvia built on 18th century. We are looking for residents who are professionals in their field and can relate to inter/trans- disciplinary processes; who are able to work independently and produce their work in unusual circumstances, but are also open for cooperation with local audience and hosts. Thematic residencies (8-10 grants available) Residencies duration 4-8 weeks for the period between May and October, 2013 SERDE every year change the main focus of their interest and working themes and within this program our aim is to expand the boundaries and give to the artist the possibility explore and work in rural city environment.
