Iaspis Images Image Image Description IASPIS is the Swedish Arts Grants Committee's international programme for Visual and Applied Arts. Its mission is to work with internationalisation in various ways with the aim of increasing and developing contacts between Swedish artists and international institutions, fellow artists, the general public and the markets with the aim of contributing to artistic development and improved working and income opportunities. This is done by means of direct support for various forms of international cultural exchange, studio programmes in Sweden and abroad, informational activities and expert visits, as well as via a public programme of activities which formulate and explore topical issues in contemporary visual art and design from an international perspective. IASPIS comprises a total of twelve residencies in Sweden, nine of which are located in Stockholm, plus another three residencies courtesy of collaborative partners in Gothenburg, Malmö and Umeå. Swedish visual applied artists can apply for residency in Stockholm. International grant holders can only come by invitation. Studio Information The Iaspis program is based around nine studios at Södermalm in Stockholm, where both Swedish and international artists work. In addition to the studios in Stockholm there are three studios in Gothenburg, Malmö and Umeå for international artists.
