Onassis AiR is an international artistic research residency program based in Athens, Greece, that was established by the Onassis Foundation in 2019. Founded on the principles of learning and doing with others, Onassis AiR grounds its mission in supporting the artistic process by offering space and time to arts professionals from various backgrounds and disciplines to delve deeper into their practice without any requirement to present a final work. All program participants will be invited to participate in the Open Days, a series of events that will run throughout the year and are open to the public. Additionally, all participants are encouraged to engage with the Οnassis AiR Community through an offering, in the form of a workshop, a presentation, a lecture or screening, or any other format they wish to propose.

Since 2009 the artist collective Medea Electronique has organized annually a 10-day experimental artist residency, Koumaria, near Sparta in Greece, focusing on improvisation and new media practices. Artists from all over the world, inspired by the Greek natural landscape, come together to create a multicultural and cross-media ‘dialogue’ culminating in a collective presentation at the end of the residency. The cross-cultural dialogues that the residency engenders both create new artistic speculations and smelt older assumptions. Past residents have formed lasting friendships and new artistic partnerships. Medea Electronique, being an eclectic art collective, is interested in people from diverse cultural and artistic backgrounds. For us the residency serves as a model for future creative endeavors.
