The studio community at Oceanvej 1 will therefore not only be a place where artists can work, but also a community where you can meet for the exploratory conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Containerakademiet was initiated by sculptor and professor Bj\u00f8rn N\u00f8rgaard and was developed and built in collaboration with CPH City & Port Development and Unionkul v. Klaus Kastbjerg. The architect on the project is Arcgency, the engineer is Erik Pedersen, and the contractor is WR Enterprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The developer and operator is Fonden Containerakademiet, the land has been made available by CPH City & Port Development, and the project is generously supported by A.P. The M\u00f8ller Foundation, the Obel Family Foundation and the Augustinus Foundation. AHC manages the studio spaces and takes care of the day-to-day operations as well as the artistic program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Come celebrate the opening of Containerakademiet, the city’s new studio community for professional visual artists.
