Get matched →Open Call for Collide Copenhagen: a fully-funded, two-month residency split between CERN in Geneva and Copenhagen Contemporary in Copenhagen. The selected artist or collective will conduct research, engage in dialogue with scientists and engineers, and produce a new artwork with curatorial support from both institutions.
Artists from any country who are 18+ years old with a convincing body of work and at least 5 years of professional artistic experience. Collide particularly encourages artists interested in the cultural significance of scientific research and technology, those seeking to extend their connection with science, those able to work collaboratively across disciplinary boundaries, those interested in CERN's community and history, and those whose work reflects on new models of social enquiry and synergies between art, science, technology and society.
Every listing links to the organizer's official page. Always confirm deadlines, fees, and entry rules there before you apply.
One artist or artistic collective will be selected based on eligibility criteria and evaluation of the submitted project proposal. A jury board formed by cultural experts, scientists, and representatives from each institution will review submissions. Juror names will be revealed after the call closes.
Collide Copenhagen is an annual residency programme (2023-2025) for artists with a distinct interest in science and technology who have strong motivation to engage in dialogue with scientists and engineers. The first month takes place at CERN in Geneva; the second month at Copenhagen Contemporary in Copenhagen. Following the residencies, artists undertake a remote phase to define and produce a new artwork with support from both curatorial teams.
