SUBMISSION

Centre d’Art is pleased to accept submissions for exhibitions and for artist residencies.

Centre d’Art is pleased to accept submissions of cohesive art projects.

All artists are welcome to submit their projects for an exhibition. The artist, through the description of the project and the images provided, should convey the inspiring idea that gave life to their work. It is important that the submission for the exhibition is coherent and represents the theme that is being explored.

It is better if the project and the work are part of a research developed in recent times.

Centre d’Art exhibition submission guidelines:

If you want to apply for an exhibition, please send us a mail to with “Exhibition Submission” as the subject.

The email should contain:

  • A short biography
  • The title of the art project and its explanatory text
  • Images of some old work in jpg or pdf (max 10 images) in low definition
  • Images of new work, part of the submitted project, in jpg or pdf (max 10 images) in low definition

The deadline for submission is January 31st.

ARTIST residency

Centre d’Art aspires to engage and bring people together around art and beauty.

Every year we invite an artist for a two-month residency. Our program is an opportunity to create and focus while being inspired by the unique atmosphere, beauty and nature of Auroville and to experience community life.
We encourage and facilitate collaborative projects and all initiatives that share the joy of creation and nourish interactions between the artists and the public.

To conclude the residency the artist is invited to present his work and share his experience in our exhibition space.

The Residency

  • 8 weeks in Auroville
  • Accommodation and a small workspace
  • Lunch at the community kitchen
  • E-bike
  • Curatorial support

Artists bring their own supplies
