Instituto Tele Arte (Chile) will use the Grant for the production of five exhibitions presenting emerging artists from Chile, Argentina, and Puerto Rico, three of which will include residencies for the participating artists.

Instituto Tele Arte is a non-profit self-managed art space dedicated to the promotion of contemporary art. Its exhibition program seeks to challenge conventions and stimulate reflection. Founded in 2016 by Sebastián Salfate and Enrique Flores, it is located in the neighborhood 10 de Julio, an area known for the automotive parts trade. Using two commercial premises as exhibition spaces, the Institute establishes an unusual relationship with passers-by, transforming them into passive spectators who interact with the works on display. Its surroundings become a catalyst for the project, allowing it to overcome territorial barriers through dialogue and collaboration with neighbors, public, managers, curators and artists. The Institute operates in proximity with Fundación Meteoro, directed by Paulina and Josefina Mellado, with whom it actively collaborates through residencies.
