Fondazione per l'Istituto Svizzero di Roma supports transdisciplinary residencies, fellowships, and public programs that connect Swiss, Italian, and international artists and researchers. Its giving is highly place-based and programmatic, centered on its sites in Rome, Milan, and Palermo, with a strong emphasis on experimentation across visual and performing arts, architecture, literature, and the sciences. The funder also backs thematic and production-oriented projects, especially those linking art and science or engaging environmental and ecological research.
Invitational, program-based support through annual or edition-specific calls; grants are typically residencies, fellowships, exhibition/production support, or publication and event support rather than open-ended operating grants.
Monitor the institute’s annual call pages closely: most opportunities are edition-specific with published deadlines and location eligibility tied to Rome, Milan, or Palermo. Applicants should align proposals to a listed track (e.g., Roma Calling, Palermo Calling, Milano Calling, or a thematic call like ON FORESTS) and emphasize the research-to-public-programming aspect of the project.
