— Open Call
Ca'Buccari invites artists, architects, and researchers from all cultural backgrounds and interests to apply for a one-month residency in our spaces in Venice. 

Preference will be given to applicants whose research or work creatively engages with the contemporary Venetian cultural and social-spatial context.

We strongly advise people from all cultural backgrounds and interests to apply! 

The only condition for this residency is a sincere interest in a contemporary cultural understanding of Venice's social and spatial realities and potential. 

This results in a tangible document and public presentation, a workshop, or project proposal for potential future realization at Ca'Buccari.  

— Residency Space
The residency space consists of three interconnected spaces, a large, well-equipped kitchen, a bathroom, a large studio space, and a bedroom with a double bed—with a total of 90sqm. Recidency Space PDF.

All spaces open up to a large arched arcade connected to a public park bordering the lagoon. The area is a quiet and residential area on the Southeast end of Venice, close to the Lido beaches and a 5-minute walk from the Giardini di Biennale.

MORE Experimental Jetset x Ca’Buccari
T-Shirt Edition 2026

The brick-wall motif is a recurring reference in Experimental Jetset's work, rooted in their long-standing research into Provo, the Amsterdam anarchist movement of the mid-1960s. The pattern derives from the first issues of Provo magazine, whose covers featured a brick-pattern dollhouse wallpaper — which Experimental Jetset enlarged to actual-scale proportions, underscoring the relationship between the city as built environment and the printed page. 

This investigation found a new chapter in their 2024 site-specific installation Beyond the Space of Fragile Geometry, where posters based on the standard Amsterdam brick size were shown alongside a new adaptation calibrated to the dimensions of the Venetian brick — a quiet but precise translation of one city's fabric into another's.

Experimental Jetset is an independent graphic design collective based in Amsterdam, founded in 1997 by Marieke Stolk, Erwin Brinkers, and Danny van den Dungen. Known for their highly conceptual approach, they describe their working method as "translating language into objects," with a practice focused on printed matter, site-specific installations, and visual identities. Their work consistently explores the relationship between language, design, and the city, and is held in the permanent collections of institutions including MoMA New York and the Art Institute of Chicago.
