A house with history
S’Engolidor is a family fonda open since 1983. Today, also a home for contemporary creation.
Art Residencies
S’ENGOLIDOR 58 · MENORCA
A residency programme inviting artists to live, work and create in Menorca.
Time, freedom and a place for research, exchange and whatever can only emerge when place and rhythm change.
DISCOVER THE PROGRAMME →01 06
Two editions a year
Spring and autumn. Each edition welcomes four artists for three or four weeks.
Time and freedom
Accommodation, studio, food and, above all, time to investigate, create and think.
Menorca as territory
Sea, ravines, stone, architecture, craft, cooking and people as sources of inspiration.
Mediterranean dialogue
A special link with the artistic scene of Oaxaca, Mexico, and artists from Spain and the Mediterranean.
S’Engolidor 58 Archive
Each artist leaves a free-form bitácora. Over time these views form a living archive of creation.
“A house open to art.
A territory open to creation.”

Living together, conversation and exchange are an essential part of the experience. During the stay, each artist is invited to share an encounter with the community.
Minorca fu anche un luogo di lavoro e riposo per Eduardo Chillida, che tornò sull’isola per molte estati con la sua famiglia. Il suo legame con questo paesaggio ci ricorda che creare richiede anche tempo, calma e un luogo a cui tornare.
LA RESIDENZA / COME FUNZIONA
Time to work. Space to think.
Artists and creative practitioners whose work can enter into conversation with Menorca, the house and its community.
Two editions each year — spring and autumn — with four residents per edition.
Three to four weeks: long enough to change rhythm, investigate and allow work to develop without hurry.
Accommodation, workspace, meals and the time and freedom to concentrate on a personal line of research.
Curiosity, respect for the house and island, one shared encounter and a free-form bitácora for the S’Engolidor 58 Archive.
Open calls will be announced here. Until then, artists can register their interest below.
ARCHIVIO / GALLERIA
A living archive,
built residency by residency.
Artists, works, processes and bitácoras will live here as the programme grows — not simply as documentation, but as another way of reading Menorca through the people who spent time creating here.
COMING WITH THE FIRST RESIDENCY →MOMENTI APERTI AL PUBBLICO
Not every residency needs an exhibition.
Sometimes the right ending is an open studio. Sometimes a conversation, a table, a walk, a workshop or an encounter with the village. Residents will be invited to share one moment with the community in the form that makes sense for their work.
