Born in 2016 as a contemporary renaissance residency in Florence, Numeroventi aims to provide an experience that activates artistic procedures, by connecting artists and creating space to discover new prisms of their practice. Conceived as a non-profit reality “in-between”, it focuses on supporting artists and designers in their production process.

Our vision has at its core the development of Florence’s artistic framework through the generation of transdisciplinary collaborations involving national and international creatives and vernacular artisanal expertise. Combining artistic research and hospitality through a holistic approach, the project reaffirms the role of art and design as activators of new ways of inhabiting and interacting with the world.

Our program integrates the craftsmanship heritage of Florence through the creation of synergies between invited artists and local artisans. Present and past knowledge intertwine, allowing young creatives to draw upon some of the finest manufacturing practices in the world, whilst at the same pushing further the centennial artisanal tradition, by encompassing contemporary techniques and visions.

Artist in Residence applications are currently closed.
