SPACE and KCCUK are partnering on the KCCUK/SPACE Studio Award, which is awarded to a Korean artist graduating from a London art school in 2017.
Starting in September 2017, this bursary offers the selected artist the opportunity for time and space to develop their practice for 12 months at a crucial period after finishing their studies. Throughout the year, SPACE will provide a studio and supportive environment, including professional development opportunities. The bursary will culminate in a solo exhibition at KCCUK’s London exhibition space for the KCCUK/SPACE Studio Award.
Established by artists in 1968, SPACE runs 19 artist studio buildings across seven London boroughs and Colchester, providing affordable creative workspace plus support programmes, such as exhibitions, artists residencies, bursaries and training opportunities, to enable artists to be sustainable. SPACE also delivers Learning projects for schools, young people and communities neighbouring SPACE studio sites, to promote engagement with creativity and the arts. SPACE supports 700 artists with studios and a further 700 a year with professional development. Additionally, SPACE engages 22,000 people a year though public programmes.
