Casa Equis is an art gallery that is located inside a house in the Del Valle Centro neighborhood in Mexico City. Its founders are also visual artists, inviting to the project the freshness and warmth of an artist-run space. Casa Equis has shown enormous versatility by holding more than 70 exhibitions at international fairs in Europe and America. In the Casa Equis Artistic Residency there are no limitations placed on artistic medium, age or nationality. The studio is rented per week with a period of 4 to 8 weeks depending on the project proposal, at the end of which the artist is invited to share their work in an open studio. Applications will be received throughout the year and notification of acceptance will be given two weeks after applying. The artist in residence will live and work in Casa Equis. Both the studio and private room are located on the roof of the house. While the artist works on their personal project, they will be encouraged to visit the dynamic art scene of Mexico City and provided a calendar of suggested activities.
