Artists we have supported in the past: link coming soon

IPAF is our biannual curated festival where we present DK premieres by international artists, co-productions and artist development, support and exchange opportunities centering Danish artists. 

We are dedicated to fostering innovative projects through co-productions inside the framework of IPAF. Typically, we support 2 co-productions per festival, usually based on long-standing relationships with artists and companies, or through collaborative partnerships with other organisations/institutions.

Read more about our curatorial policy: link coming soon.

Recent co-productions:
Teo Ala-Ruona – Enter Exude

Linn Haldrup Lorenzen & Alba Greve – Out of The Coffin

Beck Heiberg & Charlie Laban Trier – Digging a Glittery Grave 

A Ourø & A Kasakove – just ok

We support artists that wish to research, experiment and expand their practice together with communities. 

Recent initiatives include:

Linh Le – The Land of Many Bats (Autumn 2024)

Josh Herring – Queer Community Singing Group (Spring 2023 – Spring 2024)
They have now formed their own association and are supported by the City of Copenhagen. They have regular sessions taking place in Vanløse at Kulturstationen.

Beck Heiberg – Trans & Non-Binary Body Training (Spring 2022 – Spring 2023)

We support artists with facilities and mentoring to carry out R&D in our workshop space in Vanløse.

We provide support for projects that align with our artistic mission, values and curatorial policy. This can include:

  • Research and development support
  • Introductions to potential partners
  • Producing advice
  • Mentoring

We usually make decisions 2 years – 6 months in advance of a project commencing. Given our limited capacity, we prioritise projects that align with our values and contribute to the development of the art form or sector.

If you believe your project aligns with our mission, feel free to share information or invite us to upcoming performances by emailing [email protected]. Please note that we are a small core team working part-time and may not be able to respond fully to each enquiry.

Have an idea, topic or query that you would like to bend our ears about?

Our team has a wealth of skills and experience in working with performance practices n the independent sector, and can therefore offer a range of creative and practical advice led by your needs as an artist.

In the one-to-one sessions we can offer support and advice on a range of things from tip and tricks for funding applications. We can also help you to create strategies around your work (such as access riders) and offer opportunities to connect you with a broader network in your local area.

These sessions are free and available to all queer artists working with performance, whether you’ve recently graduated, have an idea for a new piece of work or need some advice on next steps.

These sessions are not designed as “pitching” opportunities and co-production requests. If we feel that the bookings lean more towards this, we reserve the right to contact you in regards to cancelling the meeting.

You can book a 30 minute time slot with our co-directors Emma Castro Møller and Jørgen Callesen. 

The meetings take place online and there are 4 time slots available per month. Bookings are on a first come first served basis. You can book by following this link: https://calendly.com/warehouse9-info/artist-support
