Circolo Scandinavo, Nordic artists' residency in Rome with support from the Nordic Council of Minist

Circolo Scandinavo aims at offering residencies for Nordic artists in the studio apartments in Rome, in order to strengthen and develop the individual Nordic artists' work, and to increase dialogue and network between the Nordic artists in an international context. The artists-in-residence can focus on their individual artistic work, as well as networking and promotion within the framework of a fl

exible artist-in-residence programme. Circolo Scandinavo organizes events and artist talks to expose the Nordic artists in Rome. Circolo Scandinavo’s Residence in Rome for Nordic Artists is a unique institution. It offers artists from five Nordic countries, and from all forms of art, residency for one or more months under the same roof to work in an interdisciplinary, inter-Nordic environment. This happens nowhere else and is of importance both to each individual artist and to the cultural life of the individual countries as well as to the experience of a common Nordic artistic identity in an international context. The Director – a Nordic artist – has the overall responsibility for the day-to-day running of the Residence. Since 2012 the director is Ingo Arnason (Iceland), Theatre director, . Since 2006 the Circolo has been located in Via della Lungara, in a large, spacious apartment in the stately “Casino di Vigna” from the 16th century as a neighbour to Villa Farnesina and opposite Palazzo Corsini where the Swedish Queen Christina spent the last 35 years of her life.

🌷ARTIST IN RESIDENCE AFFILIATED 🌷

Mille Bostedt är en av tre scenkonstnärer som har blivit utvald av Konstnärsnämndens ( ) teaterresidens vid Circolo Scandinavo. Hen är skådespelare, manusförfattare och regissör baserad i Stockholm, men har arbetat på teatrar runtom i Sverige och även i Finland.

Milles konstnärsskap grundar sig mycket i magisk realism, för att utmana tankar om kön, binaritet och antroposofi. Genom sina egenskrivna pjäser kan hen utforska nyanserade tillvägagångssätt att trotsa normer, och på så vis bjuda in till diskussion.

Milles morbror är Anders Arbolerius, Sveriges första och enda kardinal utsedd av påve Franciskus 2017. Att vara kardinal innebär bland annat att utse den kommande påven i konklaven, där alla kardinaler har möjlighet att bli valda. Detta var något som Anders deltog i år 2025 efter Franciskus bortgång, och var rent utav nära att bli vald.

När Anders inte är i Rom och Vatikanen så håller han till vid klostret vid Stockholms katolska stift. Nedanför klostret ligger Den Gröna Jägaren, en restaurang, pub och karaokebar där Mille stått sjungandes och funderat över hur dessa två världar existerar i samma hus. Det är en målande metafor för deras relation, nära på många sätt, men så olika på samma gång.

🌷ARTIST IN RESIDENCE AFFILIATED 🌷

We at Circolo Scandinavo are pleased to have Aunis Ahonen from Finland here who has been selected for the short term residency by Kuvittajat ry (The Finnish Illustration Association).

”I am currently working on an illustration project about acedia and melancholy, inspired by art history, ancient creatures, guiding figures, dreams, fantasy, and the subconscious. Rome offers a fantastic environment for exploring these themes.

Alongside my artistic practice, I am also studying horticulture with a focus on floral design, and discovering historical gardens will be another source of inspiration during my residency.
