Art in our shared buildings, public spaces, and landscapes can inspire curiosity and reflection, open up new perspectives, and create opportunities for meaningful encounters and dialogue between people.
For this reason, the Foundation donates art projects and artworks to locations throughout the Kingdom of Denmark where the interaction between place, users, and art holds particular potential.
Through these donations, the Foundation aims to ensure that people from diverse backgrounds and life circumstances can encounter significant works of art as a natural part of their everyday lives and experience the value and meaning that art can bring to both individuals and society.
We support permanent art projects, either as new artworks created specifically for a particular site or as donations of artworks from the Foundation’s own collection.
There are two application deadlines each year. Please see the specific dates under “Application Deadlines.”
Applicants are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the individual funding areas and application requirements described below.
