International Artists-Residence Artpace Spring 2023

Three times a year, Artpace selects a guest curator to choose three artists for the residency program. Selected by Gabriela Rangel, a New York-based independent curator, writer, and editor, the artists Reynier Leyva Novo, Yuliya Lanina and Nohemí Pérez, will be on site from January 23 through March 20, 2023. As part of their three-month residency, each artist will be provided with a studio/exhibition space, a furnished apartment, access to a van, a $6,000 stipend, and a production budget up to $10,000.
The International Artist-in-Residence Program at Artpace is unique in its diverse approach to supporting artists. For over twenty-five years, Artpace has promoted the work of local and international artists alike to create a dynamic cultural center for the San Antonio community.
Reynier Leyva Novo is one of Cuba’s conceptual artists. Working across media, Novo combines anthropological research with cutting-edge technology to examine the psychological and sociological effects of complex issues throughout the history of Cuba and the Caribbean. Novo currently lives and works in Houston, Texas.
Yuliya Lanina is an interdisciplinary artist whose work exists at the intersection of visual art, performance, and technological innovation. She creates alternate realities in her works—ones based on trauma, sexuality, loss, and identity. A secular Jew of Ukrainian descent who was born and raised in Moscow, Lanina arrived in New York in 1990 as a political refugee. She is currently Assistant Professor of Practice at the Department of Arts and Entertainment Technologies at The University of Texas at Austin.
Colombian artist Nohemí Pérez creates multidisciplinary work that revolves around the relationship between men and nature and the conflicts, tensions, and genesis that arise from this constant friction. Based on the notions of architecture, cinema, and sociology, the artist proposes a rereading of the Catatumbo territory, a geographical region with a very particular natural and sociocultural ecosystem. A particular interest in Nohemí’s work is to draw new symbolic and geographical maps that correspond to the various realities of the Catatumbo to allow it to appear on the scene of reconstruction and peace.
