In its programme of cultural activities the Iberê Camargo Foundation organises the annual Iberê Camargo Grant, with the aim of offering Brazilian artists a three-month foreign residency in important visual arts institutions.

The Grant reaches its 5th edition in 2005, having already offered six artists opportunities to become involved in cultural and artistic work at: the London Print Studio, England; Cité Internationale des Arts, France; Art Institute of Chicago, USA; and Sala de Arte Publico Siqueiros and Galeria Garash, Mexico. Partnerships are renewed and new ones organised each year, offering artists new destinations.

Artists are chosen from throughout Brazil by open competition in which each artist writes a specific project. Selection is carried out by a panel of nationally representative artists and curators who chose the artists for the residency, ten artists who will be highlighted in the Digital Magazine on the Foundation’s website, and one artist to take part in the Print Studio Guest Artist Project.
