Open for: Individuals / Organisations & Collectives Artists Cross-disciplinary
Artists and collectives from any country are invited to submit a proposal for a fully funded, two-month residency split between CERN and the Nobel Prize Museum.
Collide is an annual residency programme for artists with a distinct interest in science and technology, who have a strong motivation to engage in dialogue with scientists and engineers. The selected artist or collective will immerse themselves in the CERN community in Geneva, fostering meaningful exchanges with scientists, engineers, and staff. This will be followed by a stay at the Nobel Prize Museum in Stockholm to expand their reflections.
Artists from any country are invited to submit an application proposing a project that combines artistic research and production of a new work. The proposal should outline a research period in both locations and a posterior phase to define and produce a new artwork with the support of both curatorial teams in Geneva and Stockholm.
Arts at CERN and the Nobel Prize Museum invite artists to reflect on the impact of science and research in contemporary culture and society. Proposals are encouraged that consider the role of advanced technologies and new scientific paradigms as key forces shaping our world today.
Residency dates:
* Residency at CERN: September – October 2026.
* Residency at the Nobel Prize Museum: November 2026.
Collide offers the selected artist or artist collective the following financial support and conditions:
* Travel, accommodation, and subsistence costs within a fixed budget for the artistic residency period at CERN in Geneva and the Nobel Prize Museum in Stockholm.
* A production stipend of 15,000 CHF.
* For artist collectives, all these costs will be split between the members. A maximum of 2 members of a collective can be hosted at the same time as residents.
