WEEK #1
The Artist in Residence Program has started! Last week we welcomed the 4 resident artists: Nathalie Rey from France, Marloes Meijburg from Holland, Shaun Fraser from Scotland and Sandra Lapage from Brasil. This first week has been very productive, the artists found the time and inspiration to start developing their own projects surrounded by the tranquility and peace of nature. We also enjoyed great meals, shared very interesting ideas and feedbacks and chatting with the sunsets. More to come!
WEEK #2
This week has been very intense! Artists have worked intensively on their projects and progressing towards the exhibition. On Wednesday we went to Barcelona for a one-day visit to see exhibitions & art spaces. We visited the MACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona where we had a very interesting with the curator Hiuwai Chu, and visited the àngels barcelona gallery, where the project manager showed us their current exhibition. We also visited the Fundación Ideograma to get to know the space where they will have the show. Thank you Hiuwai Chu, Quico Peinado and Gabriela Berti for your time and generosity, we had a great day!
During the weekend, we had a great OPEN STUDIO day with amazing guests and a nice lunch in the terrace. Sandra, Marloes, Nathalie and Shaun presented their work in progress for the upcoming opening at Fundación Ideograma next June 27th at 6:30pm. Thank you all for coming!

WEEK #3
The last week of the residency has been decisive. Having a final exhibition at Fundación Ideograma space (Barcelona) was definitely a good motivation for the artists in order to be able to push theirselves to go beyond their limitation and to work with deadlines and goals. Time to pack the artworks, which travelled from Nectar straight to Fundación Ideograma at Fábrica Lehmann, where the day after the artists displayed their projects.
Thank you to Gabriela Berti for supporting young artists and believing in new collaborations, thanks to KOYAC and On Mediation for their collaboration and support and thanks to the artists for their amazing projects and to all that stopped by at the opening, it was a success!. It was a great "ending" for the Nectar residency program, and we couldn't be happier!
