In collaboration with the Collaborative Research Centre ISOQUANT at Heidelberg University and the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, Art Hub Copenhagen invites artists to apply for a six-month residency exchange programme that brings together artists and quantum physicists. Deadline for applications is Wednesday 26 March 2025.

  
In recent years, the intersection of art and science, particularly physics, has gained increasing prominence in artistic practices and exhibitions. This residency aims to build on that momentum by fostering creative dialogue between artists and leading international researchers in quantum physics.

  
By breaking down the traditional boundaries between scientific inquiry and artistic exploration, we aim to inspire new ways of thinking and to encourage cross-disciplinary discoveries. This programme offers artists and scientists a unique opportunity to collaborate and challenge one another and generate innovative insights and new knowledge for both fields.

  
Duration of the residency is 6 months (residency) + 6 months (follow-up programme including curatorial sparring and exhibition preparation) starting in Fall 2025.

**Stipend**: Artists will receive a monthly stipend (2.000€) to cover living expenses during the residency period (first 6 months of the program). If childcare is needed, we offer access to facilities at Heidelberg University.

  
**Accommodation**: Art Hub Copenhagen will facilitate finding a rented room/apartment practically located in Copenhagen and cover the costs. The CRC ISOQUANT will offer and cover costs for accommodation in a fully equipped apartment centrally located in Heidelberg.

  
**Workspace**: Art Hub Copenhagen will offer a studio and access to workshops, including metal, wood, printing, assembly, and digital workshop facilities. Moreover, Art Hub Copenhagen will assist in finding other relevant production facilities if needed. The CRC ISOQUANT will grant full access to all university research facilities, laboratories, and a shared office space. Heidelberg University will provide working facilities specific to the hosting institutes.

  
**Travel**: The programme covers round-trip travel between Copenhagen and Heidelberg, with an emphasis on eco-friendly options such as train travel. Additionally, local commuting in Heidelberg and Copenhagen will be facilitated and covered by ISOQUANT and Art Hub, respectively.

  
**Events and Public Presentation**: Art Hub Copenhagen and ISOQUANT will take full responsibility for organizing and funding events during the residency, such as artist talks, as well as the final public presentations of the works in Copenhagen and Heidelberg. This includes covering the costs of supplies and materials for the artworks (up to 5.000 €), an exhibition fee of 2.500 € per exhibition, and transportation costs for both the artworks and the artists. Additionally, exhibition-related costs, such as room rental and materials, will be covered (up to 2.500 € per exhibition).

  
**Publication Opportunities**: Both institutions aim to produce a joint publication at the end of the program and will also encourage and support the development of online publishing formats.
