PADA Studios

Galeria e Residência Artística localizada numa zona pós-industrial na margem Sul de Lisboa

 

INTERNATIONAL RESIDENCY

Our International Residency Programme welcomes artists from different disciplines to stay from 1 or 2 months. We will favour artists who have researched and propose projects suitable to the residency and the surrounding environment.

BARREIRO BURSARY

PADA Studios with the financial support of Câmara Municipal do Barreiro has developed a bursary for visual artists originally from and/or based in Barreiro. This bursary is focused on supporting three emerging local artists who would benefit from PADA ́s residency programme and facilities.

RESEARCH RESIDENCY

The Research Residency is designed to appeal to those who want to spend time with the community at PADA but don’t need a studio space. Aimed at writers, curators, researchers or desk based artists this residency will provide accommodation and a work space at PADA studios.

ALUMNI STUDIO

The Alumni Studio programme provides the opportunity for PADA alumni to return to continue a project they started or simply to come back to visit us in Barreiro.

Experiências PADA

"O tempo que passei na PADA foi importante em muitos aspectos. Permitiu-me um mês para me concentrar na minha prática, num novo contexto, introduziu-me num novo ecossistema de artistas e curadores, ofereceu-me uma pausa durante um período difícil da vida e abriu uma porta para uma nova cidade. Estou grato pelo tempo que passei com os meus colegas residentes e a equipa da PADA."

Alastair Gordon

"Uma oportunidade incrível de deixar para trás a rotina e concentrar-me em produzir novos trabalhos num novo ambiente e com novas pessoas. Gostei da quantidade de eventos sociais promovidos, dando aos artistas a oportunidade de conhecer algumas partes de Lisboa e do Barreiro, assim como conhecer novos artistas e fazer novos contactos.

Lawrence Calver

"O tempo que passei na PADA foi muito produtivo. Comecei a residência com muitas ideias mas rapidamente percebi que tinha de experimentar mais. O cenário e envolvente da residência ajudaram-me a ver o meu trabalho sob uma luz diferente. A incrível luz no Barreiro foi também uma parte fundamental do trabalho que lá criei."
