The New Grand Tour is a multidisciplinary program aimed at artists of all fields: Visual Arts (painting, sculpture, photography, audiovisual, etc.), Performing arts (theater, dance, circus, performance, music and sound design), and cultural and creative industries (fashion, design, architecture and landscape architecture, gastronomy, arts and crafts). In the case of the performing arts, some partner institutions may also host groups or collectives.
The program aims to provide a contemporary form of the 19th century Grand Tour, offering the selected young artists the opportunity to be accompanied in their artistic research and creation process without any production constraints, while interacting with various local cultural actors. Organized by the Institut français d'Italie and the French Embassy in Rome, the program is made possible by the Franco-German Youth Office. In 2023 it also has the support of the Goethe-Institut, the Embassy of the Netherlands and the Mondrian Foundation. In Italy, 26 residency programs cooperate with the “Nouveau Grand Tour”.
