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.

Theater
Josué Mugisha was born in Burundi and is an actor, dancer-choreographer, director and playwright.
After studying performing arts in South Africa, Josué encountered what he calls a “speech crisis” in Burundi, a term that comes from the fact that people were whispering about political issues because everyone was suspicious of everyone else, that artists were very censored and threatened, that all independent radio stations were burned, etc…
Joshua then began to research other ways of communicating with the public and found a lot of potential in the virtuosity of the bodies through the creation of conceptual images that return reason to the individual through a free, abstract and poetic reading.
