Our mission is to encourage and sustain interdisciplinary collaborations between established, mid-career,
and emerging artists and scholars, and to broaden the dialogue between southern Italy and the rest of the world.
We offer and curate short and long-term residencies and fellowships, exhibitions, workshops, and symposia,
believing that the significant contributions of artists and scholars with distinguished careers can stir the work of
those who have yet to be fully recognized for what they do.
BACAS aims to ferment artistic and intellectual interactions across stages of careers, genres, and disciplines.
Immersed in the setting of any of the hilltop towns of our beautiful valley, rich with historical significance and natural beauty,
artists and scholars have space and time to work undisturbed, in solitude, and/or in collaboration with others,
to create lasting works of imagination and ingenuity.
