    If I am admitted, do I have to be in charge of hanging, building and installing myself?2022-11-07T10:43:09+00:00

    No, not if the works are small and can be easily placed or hung, but applicants who are admitted with larger installations are always responsible for their own constructions. It is up to the Charlottenborg Foundation to assess whether the applicant should be responsible for the installation.

    If I'm admitted, do I have to be in charge of technical equipment myself?2022-09-26T10:35:29+01:00

    In some cases, the Charlottenborg Foundation can provide a limited number of screens and speakers. For accepted works that require special equipment, such as film, video, sound, computer art, etc., the artist is responsible for the necessary equipment (rental, covering costs, etc.) and its set-up. The Charlottenborg Foundation may be responsible for the daily operation of the work during the exhibition period, provided that a simple operating manual is available. The Charlottenborg Foundation reserves the right to remove a work from the exhibition if it is not functioning properly. The artist (or a deputy) must be responsible for the daily operation of the work during the exhibition period if the work requires more extensive operation.

    If I am admitted, will I be responsible for insurance, packaging, transport of my works to and from Kunsthal Charlottenborg?2022-11-07T10:48:39+00:00

    Yes, you are responsible for packing and transporting your contribution(s) to Kunsthal Charlottenborg and for any transport insurance, as well as for unpacking and return transport after the exhibition has ended. The Charlottenborg Foundation does not cover any costs associated with this. Your contributions will be insured (only against burglary and fire) for the period they are at Kunsthal Charlottenborg. In your application, you must state the amount of insurance on your work(s). The sum insured includes the costs associated with the production/restoration of the work(s).

    If someone buys the work/works I exhibit, how is the payment done?2022-09-26T10:40:30+01:00

    The artist is responsible for all sales and must send an invoice to the customer. The Charlottenborg Foundation does not take any commission. It is proposed to set the sale price so that it includes everything the buyer sees (i.e. frames and the like), including information on whether or not the work exists in more than one copy, which must also be stated in the application. The Charlottenborg Foundation is not liable if a buyer drops out.

    What happens to my application material after the jury verdict?2020-11-05T12:07:11+00:00

    The uploaded files not accepted in the exhibition are deleted from the Charlottenborg Foundation's server after the jury's work is completed. The contributions assumed by the jury will remain on the Charlottenborg Foundation's server for use in the exhibition catalogue as well as for marketing and dissemination purposes in accordance with our privacy policy.

    What permissions do I need to grant?2020-11-05T12:07:57+00:00

    When you apply with pictures of your contribution(s), you give permission for the Charlottenborg Foundation and Kunsthal Charlottenborg to publish your contribution in the exhibition catalogue, and that imagery of your contribution(s) may be used by the press for publishing in connection with the media coverage of the Spring Exhibition, as well as for dissemination and advertising at the Spring Exhibition/Charlottenborg Foundation/Kunsthal Charlottenborg website, social media (Facebook and Instagram) etc. The applicant cannot claim royalties or other remuneration from the various media, the Charlottenborg Foundation or Kunsthal Charlottenborg in this regard.
