Hordaland Kunstsenter – Résidence d'artistes des pays nordiques et baltes 2027/2028

Hordaland Kunstsenter, Norway’s first artist‑run centre, invites artists residing permanently in the Nordic and Baltic countries (excluding Norway) to apply for a two‑month residency in Bergen for the 2027/2028 programme. The residency offers a stipend of 30,000 NOK for the full stay, covered accommodation in a furnished one‑bedroom flat near the centre, and travel support of up to €500, with tickets booked by the residency coordinator. Residents receive a dedicated desk, workspace, access to a project room and, if needed, connections to local studios and production facilities. No finished work is required; the focus is on research and experimentation, culminating in a public presentation of the artist’s practice. Eligibility excludes full‑time students and artists enrolled in an artistic PhD programme. Applications consist of a PDF (CV, motivation letter, up to five slides) sent to residency@kunstsenter.no and a Google Forms submission. The deadline is 1 December 2026, after which the selected artists will be announced. Four residency periods are available: Spring 2027, Autumn 2027, Winter 2027, and Spring 2028. The call is funded by the Nordic‑Baltic Mobility Programme for Culture.
