Number of Participants

This Call for Artist will select one candidate for the "Female Land Artist Wanted" project. Bortolomiol, a luxury winery of historical origin, offers an artist-in-residence within its own production establishment, on the suggestive hills of Prosecco Superiore. Founded by Bartolomeo Bortolomiol in 1760, today the winery boasts a completely female management (the firm is led by 4 sisters: Maria Elena, Elvira, Luisa and Giuliana), and it is exactly the female contribution that we want to enhance with the "Female Land Artists Wanted" project created by Current, a start-up specialized in curating and developing unconventional artistic projects.
