CLOSED FOR APPLICATIONS - PLEASE COME BACK NEXT YEAR
Norrköping Air offers three artists the opportunity to live and work in Norrköping, Sweden from June 1– August 31, 2014. It is the second year that we offer this summer residency to artists from all over the world to develop projects in dialogue with the Norrköping Air team and Swedish institutions.
1. What kind of artistic practice are we looking for?
∞ Norrköping Air focuses specifically on time-based art and process-based practices. We are particularly interested in work that can be presented in public spaces of the urban landscape or work that is site-specific, experimental and challenges or looks for alternatives to existing ideas, forms and norms.
∞ We are looking for projects to be developed in tandem with the other two residents’ practices and in dialogue with Norrköping Air’s partners in the region.
2. What do we offer?
∞ Each selected resident will receive a 15,000 SEK grant per month for the three months of June, July and August 2014.

∞ The grant includes a small budget for production and a public presentation.
