The residency provides space for professional artists who want to develop an artistic work in France.The Cit? Internationale des Arts is a foundation directed to the public benefit since 1957. Its founders include a large number of States, schools, institutes, universities and ministries from close to 50 countries all across the world. Three of its historic founders and key partners are the City of Paris, the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Nicholas Harding, discusses his recent trip to Europe in light of his residency:

"I'm basically 'feeding my head?, looking at wonderful things, drawing from works in art museums, sitting in cafes and drawing people. Since returning from a visit to London a week ago I have been getting sitters into the studio for portrait studies in watercolour and gouache. Have to work quickly - they take about 3 hours to do. The corner aspect of the studio on the 2nd floor provides a wonderful light and outlook. The room's ambiance is a fabulous catalyst for these sessions."
