World Wide Air (WWA) welcomes applications from professional artists and curators worldwide. The program aims to ensure cultural exchange between professional agents on the Danish and international art scenes and a Danish audience.

WWA is calling for applications from artists or curators, who wish to research, produce or collaborate with a Danish partner (institution or agent on the Danish art scene).

In an effort to strengthen knowledge sharing, applications with an educational and/or public aspect are given priority (i.e. a master class for professional artists/curators, lecture, workshops for youths/schools, exhibition, talk, reading etc.). FABRIKKEN is able to assist with locating audiences and participants for master classes, workshops etc.

WWA welcomes artists and curators for a duration of 1-3 months. The artist in residence receives a monthly stipend plus a fixed travel grant, shared accommodation in Copenhagen and a private studio at FABRIKKEN.

FABRIKKEN for Kunst & Design / The Factory of Art & Design

FABRIKKEN is a not-for-profit art institution that provides studios and work spaces for more than 70 professional artists and designers. FABRIKKEN is guided by the spirit of community and resource-sharing, which is nurtured through an event program and the all-important communal Wednesday lunches.

In addition to the many studios, The Factory contains a 1000 m2 production hall, which is used for exhibitions, events, and artistic production.

Application

There is no application form; however, only applications that meet the required criteria (see website what to include in your application) and respect the guidelines will be taken into consideration. The applications are assessed by a jury, and applications can expect a reply by early November 2016.

The application is sent by e-mail to FABRIKKEN's residency coordinator at info@ffkd.dk

Criteria

The selection criteria are artistic quality, professionalism and that the residency seems relevant to the artistic or curatorial practice and/or project. Applications with an educational and/or public aspect are given priority.
