ARTISTS’ RESIDENCY SUMU
Arte Association’s Artists' Residency SUMU offers one to three month residencies in 2010 to new media artists, working in the intersection of new technologies and contemporary art.
The residence is located in Turku, in the Southwestern coast of Finland. Artists are provided with free accommodation and studio, and a possibility of exhibiting their work either in Sumu’s studio which is adjoined to Arte’s gallery Titanik, or on Sumu’s website. The artists must fund all their living expenses including food and transportation. Arte can help the artists with material costs up to 200 euros depending on the application.
