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.

Visual arts
Born in Mexico, Alejandro García Contreras, lives and works in Guadalajara. Alejandro García Contreras’ work is based on a complex imagery, where Chiapas artisanal production, colonial art, cartoons and pop comics, folklore, mythology and his personal history come together.
Just as the creative resources are diverse, so is the materiality of his projects, as they fuse ceramics, graphics, painting and other artistic resources. This combination of elements results in suggestive forms in which the viewer can explore the divine and the evil, the magical, the erotic, the feminine and various taboo dimensions from his orher own unconscious, thus discovering a new sense of divinity through contemporary idols. Recent exhibitions include: Swievel Gallery (USA, 2023), Judd Foundation, (USA, 2023), House of Gaga (Mexico, 2023), Travesia Cuatro Gallery (Mexico, 2023), Friedman Benda (USA, 2022).

Visual arts
Omar Fidel García (born in 1993) is an artist whose work engages in a profound material investigation. His work oscillates between the symbolic and the literal, blending and erasing boundaries between space, the poetic, and the autobiographical. He explores the possibilities offered by material selection to cultivate his own artistic language.
Self-taught, he meditates on sculpture, experimental installation, and private performances. Holding a Master’s degree in sculpture from the Yale School of Art, he currently works between New York and Mexico City (Mexico).
