Dresden Residency Exchange





Each year, the Dresden Residency Exchange brings accomplished artists from various stages of their careers to Zygote’s workshop, and sends two Ohio artists to work in Dresden at the Grafikwerkstaat for a period of up to six weeks. Ohio artists in Dresden this fall are our own Susan Vincent and Eliana Calle-Saari of Columbus. This year, we will welcome Tobias Stengel and Franzsicka Leonhardi from Germany. An exhibition of their work created both previous to and during their time at Zygote will open on Friday, October 24 - 6 - 9 pm and will run through October 31.

The Ohio Arts Council funds the Dresden Residency Exchange -- part of an ongoing cultural-artistic link between the State of Ohio and the city of Dresden, Germany. This program enables artists from Ohio and Dresden to become acquainted with the art and artists of each community, provides time for the artists to explore the printmaking resources of each location, and establishes ongoing artistic relations between Ohio and Dresden.
