No presentations, just knowledge exchanges to spark curiosity and collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jacob Lillemose from Art Hub Copenhagen and Associate professor Tue Hassenkam from the Globe Institute will introduce the program and facilitate the discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">~<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">INFO<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>SPARK<\/em> : An Art-Science Collaborative Program&nbsp;<br>Match-making event&nbsp;<br><br>16 January 2026<br>1-4 PM<br><br>Art Hub Copenhagen<br>Thoravej 29<br>2400 K\u00f8benhavn NV<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participation in the event is free but sign-up is necessary.

Each project team must consist of at least one artist and one Globe Institute scientist, though multiple collaborators on either side are welcome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The program provides support for artists to partner with a Globe scientist for a year to realise a joint artistic project. The culmination of this process will be an artistic output led by the artist, inspired by, or possibly co-conceptualised with, their scientific partner. The collective outputs will benefit from the curatorial expertise at Art Hub Copenhagen, forming a public exhibition of the work at the conclusion of the program period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>ELIGIBILITY AND APPLICATION CRITERIA<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ARTISTS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A professional artist evidenced by an existing body of artistic output<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Based in Denmark or internationally and without visa restrictions that would prevent participation in the program.
