The foundation Edvard Munch’s Studios offers a studio residency for professional artists in one of the artist apartments at Ekely in Oslo. The apartment is located at the end of a terraced house with 6 units. It was built in 1959 after design by the famous Norwegian architects Jens and Wenche Selmer.
The apartment has a spacious studio of 32 m² with large north-facing windows, a skylight and its own entrance. The integrated apartment has two bedrooms, kitchen, living room, bathroom, garden and terrace. A total of 102 m².
Professional artists living outside of Oslo, who need to work in the city for a period of time can apply for a residency. The apartment makes it possible to bring family or be up to three artists applying together.
Residency artists commit to participate in a public event during their stay such as an artist talk, open studio or similar.
Other criteria and formalities, including length of stay, are announced in each individual call for applications.
For the period 2024-2026 the residency program is kindly supported by Sparebankstiftelsen DNB.
