'IL GATTOPARDO’ - the residency

The place

The Place - il Gattopardo

A large former farmhouse called 'il Gattopardo’ sits in the hills just outside Cairo Montenotte in Liguria, Italy. The building dates back to 1787 and was fully restored in 2022. It now comprises 10 bedrooms, 2 kitchens as well as individual studios and larger communal areas. 

It sits on a 20-hectare estate with rolling hills and fields. Il Gattopardo offers up to 6 artists a venue where they can work individually and/or collectively surrounded by a quiet and peaceful natural environment.
