Following the successful call in 2023, the two UNESCO Creative Cities of Media Arts Karlsruhe and Cali (Colombia) launched the international exchange program Cali to Karlsruhe again in July 2024. Two media artists from each of the two cities were sought for a residency in Karlsruhe and Cali. The artists Lehel Lajos from Karlsruhe and Daniela Vargas from Cali have now been selected by an international jury.
Exciting and creative months begin for the two artists. The first residency in Cali will take place from November 1 to 15, 2024. After the conceptual phase, the online artistic collaboration will run until the second residency from July 31 to August 17, 2025 for a final production phase in Karlsruhe. The resulting artwork will be presented as part of the annual exhibition Media art is here 2025 in Karlsruhe.
Cali to Karlsruhe
Karlsruhe participates for the fourth time in the City to City cooperative program, in the course of which the first co-produced artwork was created in 2020. City to City enables the artists selected as part of an international call for entries to collaborate artistically on an international level.
