Fondation Françoise Siegfried-Meier supports contemporary artists through La Becque, a residency program designed to enable sustained research, creation, and exchange. Its strongest emphasis is on projects that connect art with nature, environmental questions, and technology, making it especially relevant for artists working at the intersection of ecology and experimentation. The funder appears to favor international artists or practices rather than local-only arts support, with a clear focus on time, space, and resources for deep artistic development.
Primarily offers an annual, application-based three-month residency at La Becque with accommodation, a monthly stipend, travel support, and access to facilities. Support is program-specific rather than open-ended grantmaking, and the call is only open for a short window each March.
Watch for the annual March application window, which lasts only about two weeks. Applicants should propose a well-developed project aligned with the residency’s interests in nature, environment, and technology, and should be prepared to apply through the La Becque process rather than seeking unsolicited project grants.
