ARTLAB_LCC is the residency and studio program of Luisa Catucci Contemporary — conceived not simply as a workspace, but as a structured environment for artistic growth.
Located in Berlin’s Schillerkiez, in the heart of Neukölln’s creative landscape, ARTLAB_LCC was created in response to a clear need: artists require time, focus, critical dialogue, and real opportunities — not just square meters. Here, the studio becomes a laboratory. A place where ideas are tested, bodies of work take shape, and conversations matter.
This is not a passive rental model. It is a curated framework built around development.
Artists at ARTLAB_LCC work within a defined trajectory: creating a coherent body of work toward a concrete exhibition outcome, engaging in regular studio visits and structured critical exchanges, and opening their process to a growing network of curators, collectors, and peers. Throughout the residency, visibility is intentionally constructed — from open studios and artist talks to documented studio visits and short interview reels that strengthen professional positioning.
The emphasis is on continuity and depth. We work with a limited number of artists to ensure meaningful attention and sustained dialogue. The objective is not temporary occupancy, but artistic consolidation and long-term trajectory building.
ARTLAB_LCC operates as an extension of Luisa Catucci Contemporary’s curatorial vision — bridging studio practice and public presentation, experimentation and structure, intimacy and professional exposure.
It is a space where work evolves with intention, and where artists are accompanied, challenged, and supported while building the next chapter of their practice.
