Laboratory for research and experimentation in poetry and sound
Between January and March 2025, the Pernod Ricard Foundation welcomes Lou Villapadierna for a research-creation residency at Aperto. For three months, the artist-researcher will use the Aperto space as a laboratory for research and poetic and sound experimentation. In this context, she will extend her theoretical and sonic explorations, and listen to the multiple spectral traces of these voices with their abstract and/or under-listened-to tonalities.

Zzz. the publishing house of graphic design duo Bizzari-Rodriguez
Residency
June-July, 2024
Zzz is a publishing house founded by Thomas Bizzarri and Alain Rodriguez (Bizzarri-Rodriguez). It claims no editorial policy, other than to explore the potential narratives offered by the book object, and to thwart the typologies and archetypes that traditionally govern its form and structure.
Its first book, Un'fold (working title), by artist David Douard, will be published in autumn 2024. It will be an immersion in the circulation of language, words and images within his work. Where everything interpenetrates, like a never-finished fanzine-always ongoing-these flows intermingle, agglomerating works, collages, research, sources and references, notes, personal archives and other motifs in gestation. The book shows and renews, fixes as much as it modifies David Douard's work, translating the energies that run through and articulate his practice. Author Nina Kennel's text circulates within the object, insinuating itself into its very materiality.
As a preliminary to their first publication on David Douard's work in the autumn, in July they will publish a zine based on the artist's personal poem and photographs.

Toomanyrecordss par MORE Projects - nomad artist run space
Residency
March 4 to June 2, 2024
Toomanyrecordss is an expansive project. Part collection, part archive of unique artworks, the project plays with fetishism simultaneously in music and art.
Since 2018, Davide Bertocchi and Sergio Verastegui have been inviting artists to intervene on 33 rpm records that they choose and entrust to them or send to them by post. It's a carte blanche to create a work with / or on the sleeve or on the vinyl (or both). The records come from a wide variety of sources, sometimes chosen according to the musical tastes of the two artists initiating the project, sometimes because one or more elements in the sleeve appeal to an imagination close to that of the guest artist. Each vinyl thus becomes a "unique" piece, where the collaborative process generates a new object, a hybrid work from the vinyl/cover format.
Public opening times will be organized during this residency.
The project was first presented in 2019 at Art-O-Rama, Marseille.
