Kunstwerk Kolderveen
Kunstwerk Kolderveen facilitates artistic production by offering a space and tools for artists to produce artworks at an affordable price and stay over for a period of max. 6 weeks. Artists and curators can stay from two nights to six weeks, either during the production of an artwork or for research.
Kunstwerk Kolderveen offers production space for artists dedicated to the making and realization of artistic projects. In the shared studio and equipment, guests can specify how to best set up the studio in order to work on their projects. They also aim to be a place for a professional exchange.
Incoming artist residents (dependent on length of residency) can be asked to share thoughts on their production with local artists in events organized in the residency. From time to time Kunstwerk Kolderveen will open itself up as an exhibition space presenting work produced there in combination with invited artists.
Shared large studio of 100 sqm with daylight, 6 meters high.
The residency is comprised of a shared kitchen/living room, a private bedroom (2 single beds and a baby cot) and a WC / shower.
Artists can access equipment for wood working, metal working, silicon casting, VR, simulation and animation, digital drawing, 3D printing, photography, video, painting lab. Artists staying in the art residency can book working periods and facilities. In principle, the production space is not managed by any technicians. If guests require assistance or craft knowledge this is possible to be arranged.
