Hello João,
As part of a wider programme called the Balsall Heath Biennale, an arts partnership in Birmingham created a Cat Gallery in their home (after a 'successful' translation of Marcel Broodthaers's 'Interview with a Cat' recorded at the Musée d'Art Moderne, Düsseldorf in 1970).

In London, Amalia Pica did a one year off-site work with Chisenhale Gallery where a 'nomadic' piece of sculpture was hosted in people's homes in Tower Hamlets:

All the best

Hi João,
Portuguese artist Rogério Nuno Costa developed a project for several years called Vou a tua casa / Going to your place. He prepared a rather thorough catalogue, with texts from writers, researchers and spectators from several fields which has been in press for a while now. I think he'd be happy to share information with you.
Take a look: http://vouatuacasa.wordpress.com/
Cheers,
Pedro

Hello João,
Two undergraduate students of mine published a neat article on several kinds of public events in private homes in Halifax, Nova Scotia, including art exhibitions.
Levy, Samantha and Susannah Church (2012) 'Opening Doors and Sitting on Floors: Public Events in Private Spaces: the (re)-appropriation of space through grassroots events in Halifax.' The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography 2(1). http://undergraduateethnography.org/sites/default/files/papers/LevyChurch.pdf
cheers,
Martha

Hello!
I’m looking for references related to art events taking place in private houses, something like the Brighton and Hove’s ‘Artists Open Houses!’. Any suggestions?
Greetings,
João
