Villa Lena This project was born in 2013, conceived by the lucid mind of Lena Estafieva, a russian art curator living in London, who embarks on re-launching and revitalizing a beautiful Villa in the Pisan countryside, with several farmhouses attached and several hundred hectares of land , Villa Lena precisely, she has chosen to do it through art and music. The project takes shape swiftly and from Villa Lena up-and-coming artists with a great desire to discover the potential of printmaking begin to arrive at Bisonte (actually it is a peculiarity of this collaboration that few of the artists in residence have previous skills in printmaking) our hope is that once the residency is over and the artists returned to their domestic routine they'd continue to use the printmaking techinques as a new artistic mediums available to them. 2013 Hugo Wilson Marie von Thurn und Taxis Nika Neelova Shaun McDowell Celia Hempton 2014 Sylvie Auvray Beatrice Lettice Boyle Benjamin Brett Bobby Dowler Lionel Esteve Christopher Green Kate Groobey Adeline de Monseignat Jay One Ramier Jasmine Ruiz Blasco 2015 Moataz Nasr Alan Reid Lola Montes Schnabel Kontantin Trubkovich Craig Fisher 2016 Ima-Abasi Okon Evy Jokhova Oliver-Selim Boualam and Lukas Marstaller Butternutten 2018 Jordan Sullivan Here the Villa Lena web site
