GAP - Global Art Programme, Waiting for Expo 2015 is an international programme of cultural exchange between Italy and other countries participating in the Expo Milano 2015 - Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life. Started in 2010, the programme offered to Italian and foreign artists the opportunity to live a residence period of two months in a host country in order to create a work on issues related to the Expo (health and proper nutrition, environment and sustainable energy, geo-architecture).

Every year foreign artists were selected to stay in Milan at the residence Open Care, managed by FARE, while the Italians spent their period of residence in foreign countries identified from time to time as annual partners of the programme. Every single residence ended with an exhibition presenting the work of the selected artist and the publication of a book collecting impressions and experiences.

The programme ended with an exhibition of all the works produced by participants in the cultural program of Expo Milano 2015.
