Košice Artist in Residence

In the frame of European Capital of Culture the NGO Košice 2013 is running an international Artist-in-Residence-program for emerging artists from all over the world and out of all artistic disciplines and expressions. Residents are given the possibility to work in the inspiring environment of Košice's singular cultural surrounding to realize art projects, collaborate with the agile local art scene and present themself to the local and national public.

The residency program has three goals:
1. Support the creative energy of every invited artist and give her/him the chance to work in a new and special environment to find (new) artistic ways to express.
2. Stimulate the art scene in Košice, in the region and in whole Slowakia. Support the dialogue as well as the confrontation of the residency artists with local artists and the wide public.
3. Create/strengthen a beneficial environment for the development of inovative and international contemporary art projects with international and local participants.
