New Media & Arts in the Age of AI 2027 Laureates

New York, June 26, 2026 – Since 2021, Villa Albertine has offered a unique residency program beyond the confines of a traditional residency model, built around a founding principle: the freedom to explore.

“Villa Albertine is today a community of more than 370 artists who are free to explore, create, and build lasting connections across the United States — with fellow artists, but also with schools, cultural centers, and communities from all walks of life. From these encounters emerge collaborations that shift perspectives and bring our societies closer together. It is this freedom—rooted in the diverse realities of the United States—that gives the friendship between our peoples its distinctive and living strength.” — Mohamed Bouabdallah, Cultural Counselor of the French Embassy in the United States and Director of Villa Albertine.
