Artists in residence
Each year, the Cité internationale des arts welcomes more than 1,000 artists from around the world, offering them a space for creation, research, and exchange in Paris, in the Marais and Montmartre districts. Open to all artistic disciplines—visual arts, music, literature, film, design and architecture, performing arts, and curating—it enables artists to develop their projects in an environment that fosters experimentation and meaningful connections.

Literature
Christopher Bollen is a writer and editor who lives in New York City. He is the author of four novels — Lightning People (2011), Orient (2015), The Destroyers (2017), and A Beautiful Crime (2020). His latest novel, a political thriller set partly in Cairo, is set to be published in 2022.
Christopher Bollen is a practitioner of the literary thriller — or rather where the genres of literature and suspense overlap. The Destroyers won the 2018 Fitzgerald Prize in France, and A Beautiful Crime was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. The work-in-progress novel involves the art world in Paris.
After graduating from Columbia University, he began a career as a magazine editor, eventually serving as Editor in Chief of Andy Warhol’s Interview Magazine. He is currently the editor at large of Interview as well as a contributing editor at Vanity Fair.

VISUAL ARTS
INSTALLATION
Debora Bolzoni is a visual artist who practices drawing, writing, making installations, site specific pieces, sculptures and objects.
In a child’s game known as “Statues” the players must stop in their position and try, at the same time, to advance until they reach the target. Most of the time, Debora Bolzoni thinks about her artwork as an interrupted scene where objects, materials, concepts and words behave like moving bodies which were surprised before arriving at their proper places, or before they reached the place they were headed to.
While this is happening, she can peek in deliberate amusement, relinquishing control and surprising them by making an abrupt and unexpected cut, as if she was collecting a time-sample for study and analysis.
Movement is as essential as stillness for spatial thought. The cut in the timeline is only a tactic for seeking permanence. An attempt to glimpse, in the suspension of the acts, some inexhaustible essence. Many times, for instance, Debora Bolzoni attempts to relate the urban landscape transformations she experienced in her childhood in the periphery of Rio de Janeiro with her visual thinking processes and technical repertoires.
