Open Call for the Rabbit Hole Residency in Naples

Jan. 03, 2020

The Rabbit Hole collective was founded in New York in 2008. With over 2000 members in 56 countries, the collective is encouraging and stimulating new ideas about the self and other with the aim to challenge culturally-constructed limits and borders, all through art and and storytelling. For the 2020 residency, the Rabbit Hole collective invites artists to respond to this year’s theme: “the art of remembering.” It is the first global residency programme organised in collaboration with Fondazione Morra in Naples. The Fondazione Morra is a cultural centre in Naples, which has previously hosted artists such as Hermann Nitsch, Marina Abramovic, Bob Watts and Peter Kubelka.
