Leveld Kunstnartun: Arbeidsopphald
Leveld Kunstnartun vart etablert i 2014 og er ein kunstnarresidens i Ål i Hallingdal. Ved å tilby gode arbeidsforhold til norske og utanlandske kunstnarar vil Leveld Kunstnartun fremje tverrfaglege uttrykk og kunstproduksjon av høg kvalitet.
Hos oss kan kunstnarar hente inspirasjon og prøve ut idear i samspel med ei levande fjellbygd. Vi tilbyr gode arbeidsforhold i form av 2 lyse atelier, ei skrivestove, ein grafikkverkstad og to bustadar. Bustadane er fullt utstyrte, og det er fibernett og eigen bil tilgjengeleg. Det er til ei kvar tid minimum tre kunstnarar på tunet, som kan søke om opphald i henhaldsvis 1, 2 eller 3 månader. Desse får tildelt eit arbeidsstipend og eit reisestipend.
For å sikre høg kunstnerisk kvalitet skjer utvelginga av gjestekunstnarar av juryar oppnevnd av Unge Kunstneres Samfund, Den Norske Forfatterforening og Norsk Komponistforening. Sidan oppstarten har over 300 kunstnarar hatt opphald i Leveld.
Leveld Kunstnartun er er ei ideell foreining støtta frå Kulturdepartementet, Buskerud Fylkeskommune og Ål kommune.
Tagli artist residency
The 2026 edition of the Tagli artist residency will be held on the island of Stromboli from July 18th to August 3rd, and will select projects from the visual and performing arts, video art, and photography, both individual and collective.
WHERE
The sixth edition of the artist residency organized by Tagli will take place in Stromboli.
WHEN
From July 18th to August 3rd 2026.
WHO
Between four and eight projects in the visual and performing arts (music, poetry, dance), video art, and photography, both individual and collective, will be selected.
APPLICATION
It's not necessary to arrive with a ready-made project; instead, it's essential to use the time and space available to focus on research and practice. To apply, tell us about your work, attaching a portfolio, videos, and audio files.
Tagli offers selected artists room and board in a private home. The spaces include rooms, restrooms, common areas, and an outdoor garden. Equipment is shared as needed, including work tables, sound systems, and projection equipment.
Tagli promotes dialogue between artists and the community, creating valuable experiences and providing a shared and stimulating environment for exploration and creative experimentation.
At the end of the residency, an open house will be held to present the works to the island. So far, Tagli has hosted 40 projects selected from approximately 1,000 submissions over the course of five years. Each edition is structured with workshops, meetings, and discussions involving the island.
THE HOUSE
The residence's spaces are all shared. The structure resembles that of a private home, so the rooms and bathrooms are shared. Work areas are primarily outdoors. There are no pre-assigned workspaces: everyone will find their own environment during the first few days of residence.
Stromboli is a welcoming island, but it requires careful treatment. The water is from a tank and not potable, so it should be used sparingly. Garbage must be separated and taken to landfill. The natural environment and gardens require careful treatment. The dry climate makes the surrounding environment vulnerable.
MATERIALS
Materials must be procured before arriving. Finding the necessary supplies for specific procedures on the island is more difficult, and shipments are subject to the challenges of sea transport.
Tagli has a backline with a stereo system and subwoofer, keyboard, guitar and microphones, projectors, work tables, printer and scanner.
