Art Hub Copenhagen (AHC) is a network-creating institution that works actively to create and expand visual artists’ networks both nationally and internationally. AHC invites three artists for a residency that runs over five months from September 2024 to January 2025, with most of the time at the premises in Copenhagen.
In previous years, the programme has taken place at Halmtorvet 27, but from spring 2024, the artists who are selected will instead be offered a studio at the Container Academy in Copenhagen’s Nordhavn.
Focusing on networking, communication, contemplation, and production, Art Hub Residency features a studio, a monthly fee, and a programme of development and feedback based on the needs of each artist. Also, part of the programme consists of meetings with selected curators/mentors as well as a visit programme to a number of art institutions in Denmark.
In addition to the focus on networking, Art Hub Residency provides the artists with time for reflection and/or production. There is no requirement to produce work during the residency, although one of the requirements of the programme is that, during their residency, each artist must present their practice, research, work, or project to the public.
Eligibility
Art Hub Residency is both for recently graduated artists and other artists, for whom the residency programme could make a difference in terms of establishing and expanding their practice nationally and internationally.
Graduated artists who are EU/EØS citizens or either in possession of a permanent residence permit or entitled in some other way to reside in Denmark for a period of five months can apply. It is possible to apply as a duo.
Support
Alongside studio space and mentoring, artists receive a fee of DKK 21,000 per month.
