Nau has always attached great importance to ensuring that the international residency programme would be a two-way journey, one in which not only do our companies go abroad, but also to ensure that groups and companies from everywhere can spend some time with us to get to meet and engage in exchanges with all the other companies that come through Nau year upon year.
This programme pursues growth through the experience of young performing arts professionals in cultural spaces like our own. Our international residency plan allows us to collaborate with other agents, institutions and centres from all over the world. The ultimate goal is to establish working residencies that allow companies from Catalonia and the rest of the world to share processes, methodologies and resources.
This two-way residency programme is comprised of:
A. Residencies by Nau Ivanow companies in other centres in the world.
The beneficiary of this line is one of the resident companies in Nau Ivanow. We will help them to come up with a design and plan the project they intend to carry out, in which the contact between the two cultures, roots in the territory and processes open to the public are the cornerstone. The group selected will have a one- or two-month stay abroad in which they will develop a research project and create material that “breathes” both cultures, i.e., the culture of Catalonia and that of the host country. If possible, at the end of the stay, a work-in-progress of the project will be presented.
B. Residency of companies from abroad at Nau Ivanow
Nau works with centres from all over the world, and we interact and organise exchanges with companies that are part of these centres. As part of this collaboration work, we host companies from centres abroad that wish to do creation residencies at Nau.
