Cross-fertilisation between arts and sciences
An artist awarded an Artist-in-Residence Fellowship spends three months at the KNIR in Rome working on a project that contributes specifically to cross-fertilisation between the arts and the sciences. The programme was established by the Royal Netherlands Institute in Rome (KNIR) and the Society of Arts.
Fellows are expected to play an active role in the life of the KNIR’s academic community and to promote cross-fertilisation between the arts and the sciences there.
Autumn 2024
The 2024 residency period will begin on 15 September and end on 15 December. Fellows receive a monthly stipend for a maximum of three months and are assigned temporary housing in one of the KNIR’s guest apartments.
Who is eligible?
- Dutch artists.
- Artists of other nationalities who live and work in the Netherlands.
