Frame is seeking applications for its Project Grant for Organisations to Participate in Art Fairs Abroad to strengthen the international position of Finnish contemporary art by supporting the opportunities of galleries to participate in major international art fairs.
The purpose of grants awarded by Frame is based on the strategy of the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture and Frame’s own strategy.
Frame is an advocate for Finnish contemporary art. Frame supports international initiatives, facilitate professional partnerships, and promote the visibility of Finnish art abroad through grants, a visitor programme and residencies, seminars and talks, exhibition collaborations and network platforms.
