Artist in Residence / for English please look below
Siden 2019 har vi startet et Artist in Residence-program I vores hus i Hans Jensens stræde 20 i Odense. Her er to små værelser på 1. sal, og køkken og bad i stueetagen. Vi modtager gerne ansøgninger om opholde fra en uge op til 3 måneders varighed.
Vi ønsker at give udenlandske grafikere mulighed for at arbejde i vores værksteder, samt at udvikle de talentfulde grafikere blandt vores egne medlemmer. Vi modtager gerne gæstekunstnere fra hele verden.
Desværre har vi ikke midler til at gøre dette til et ophold der er gratis for kunstneren.
Det koster 200 DKK i døgnet for logi, og 500 kr. for et værkstedskort. Man bør være medlem af Fyns Grafiske Værksted for at søge ophold. Vores tilbud er til gæstekunstnere 5.000 DKK for en hel måned. Kunstneren skal kunne arbejde selvstændigt i værkstedet.
Man kan søge om tilskud til sine rejse og opholdsudgifter hos kunst.dk
Hvis du har lyst til at høre mere, kontakt Lene Leveau på mail fynsgrafiskevaerksted@gmail.com eller telefon +45 6613 9973
Fyns Grafiske Værksted har tre udvekslingsaftaler for medlemmer. Hvis du har lyst til at arbejde med grafik andre steder for at lære nyt, kan du sende en begrundet ansøgning om at komme til Atelier Circulaire i Montreal, eller til Künstlerhaus Lukas i Tyskland, eller til Mältinranta i Finland senest d. 15 januar 2021.

Artist in Residence
Since 2019 we have started an Artist in Residence program in our house in Hans Jensen’s Street 20 in Odense in Denmark. Here are two small rooms on the first floor, and kitchen and bath on the ground floor. We would like to receive applications for a stay of one week up to 3 months. There is no deadline.
We want to give foreign printmaking artists the opportunity to work in our studios, to develop talented graphic artists . We welcome guest artists from all over the world.
Unfortunately, we do not have the means to make this a stay that is free for the artist. The expenses for one month is 5.000 DKK. This gives you full acces to the studio which is fully equipped.
You can apply for grants for travel and subsistence expenses in www.kunst.dk
If you have any questions or would like further information, please contact Lene Leveau fynsgrafiskevaerksted@gmail.com
or +45 6613 9973

Artists helping Artists (article by John Graham, Assistent Professor at Saskachewan University)
The collective experience of creating prints in a shared studio has always appealed to me. I value how printmaking in a communal environment allows for artists to help other artists. I was affirmed of this strongly held belief during a recent artist residency in Denmark at the Funen Printmaking Workshop in Odense. This one-month residency provided free studio access and local accommodation. The Workshop facility is ideally located in Odense in the heart of the old quarter with picturesque, cobbled streets. Over 300 members from Denmark and 20 other countries are members of this lively Workshop that is only a few doors away from the birthplace home of beloved Hans Christian Andersen.
Odense is Denmark’s third largest city. The Funen Printmaking Workshop is a private association and receives funding support from the City of Odense, artists, memberships, and from the sales of prints. This cozy workshop offers several studios for working in etching, relief printmaking, photo-printmaking, and lithography. This extremely welcoming Scandinavian studio is a creative environment with lots of spontaneous interaction and mentorship between members on a daily basis. You are immediately made to feel part of their very supportive graphic art community. There is a constant free flow of discussions and friendly exchanges of art printmaking techniques, and cultural ideas. Visitors also drop into the studios on an everyday basis.
An elegant exhibition space is located adjacent to the ground floor studio and hosts 12 exhibitions per year. Of note, the gallery also facilitates art exhibitions that are intended just for audiences of young people of the ages of 3 to 18. These special exhibitions are intended to educate and involve new generations to appreciate printmaking art. Tickets are purchased and then each young visitor independently experiences the artwork and then exchanges the ticket for a print of her or his choosing without any adult supervision.
The studio is making new strides to improve non-toxic methods of printmaking. During my stay, several of the Workshop members traveled to a Swedish conference of other printmaking collectives to exchange and network new ideas. A special topic of interest was to discuss further developing visiting artist exchanges at no or low cost between printmaking studios in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Germany.
The Workshop is located only a few minutes away from the train and bus stations so travel to the other parts of Denmark can be easily planned. For example, Denmark’s second city, Aarhus is less than 2 hours away by train and is worth a visit to experience the work of the Rainbow Panorama conceived by Icelandic-Danish artist Olafur Eliasson. This circular 150 meter walkway is perched on top of the large cube shaped ARoS Art Museum. The Louisiana Art Museum north of Copenhagen is a must visit. It must be one of the world’s most superb art galleries hosting stellar international visual art exhibitions in multiple buildings set in amidst unforgettable Scandinavian garden seaside settings.
The studio also has a bicycle to loan to each residency guest. Denmark is probably one of the most bike friendly nations on the planet. On the first day I joined the thousands who cycle every day in town peddling on endless dedicated bike paths. Odense hosts a plethora of art events and activities including art exhibitions, film festivals, free open air concerts, classical concerts in the cathedral, small paddle boat rentals on the river, folk dancing in the park, etc.
The workshop hosts a variety of artist talks throughout the year. These are presented by guest artists as well as by members who have travelled and returned home with new printmaking experiences to share. The workshop also facilitates 6 to 8 courses per year. These courses cover a wide range of print media and techniques. They are attended by artist members, professional printers, and students from the local art academy.
I met many printmakers in the workshop who were doing very exciting work. These included Yngve Riber who was doing multi-plate etchings and Teresa Larson who was creating cyanotypes. At the time of my residency, member artists Elmar Monster and Marinne Lindberg Jepsen were participating in an outreach program to interest children in the art of printmaking by doing demos and helping young people create prints in situ at a “pop-up” library at the base of an office tower in central Odense.
Of note, the Funen Printmaking Workshop is actively looking for exchange opportunities with other printmaking international studios as well as future visiting guest artists who speak English or Danish. I was delighted to give an artist talk and exhibit my prints created during the residency. I thoroughly enjoyed my Odense stay and hope to return to Denmark soon.
