Nieuwe Instituut: Tilting Axis Fellowship 2027

Nieuwe Instituut: Tilting Axis Fellowship 2027

Fellowship for applicants based in the Caribbean part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands

Nieuwe Instituut is the Dutch national and international museum and institute for architecture, design and digital culture, based in Rotterdam (Netherlands). Nieuwe Instituut also looks after the The National Collection of Dutch Architecture and Urban Design. Tilting Axis is an arts platform for, from, across, and through the Caribbean.

The 2027 Tilting Axis Fellowship will be supporting two fellows in a six-week programme centred on research, exchange, and network-building between the Caribbean and the Netherlands. One fellow will be selected from the Dutch Caribbean. Applicants may also apply as a pair from different regions of the Caribbean including the Dutch Caribbean; if selected, the pair will together occupy both fellowship positions. Otherwise, the selected fellows will be paired by the organisers. Within the six-week programme, Nieuwe Instituut facilitates a one-week tailor made visit to the Netherlands. This fellowship is conceived as a period for networking, research, reflection, and dialogue.
