Cmimi ARDHJE eshte i vetmi cmim profesional per artin bashkekohor ne Shqiperi. Ky cmim siguron mbeshtetjen e munguar per realizimin e ideve te reja dhe projekteve te artisteve, te cilet perndryshe nuk kane shanse per t’u materializuar. Ky cmim gjithashtu ofron nje mundesi ekspozimi, me standartet me te larta profesionale, si dhe mundesine e shkelqyer per fituesin, te marre pjese ne nje rezidence prej 6 javesh ne New York te SH.B.A., se bashku me shume artiste dhe profesioniste te tjere nga bota, te vizitoje muze dhe galeri, si dhe te ndertoje nje rrjet kontaktesh qe do ta ndihmojne ne te ardhmen. Ky eshte i vetmi cmim i cili jepet nga nje juri profesionistesh nga vendi dhe bota dhe qe ndertohet mbi krijimtarine e paster te vete artisteve, duke u bere keshtu nje mjet i rendesishem per gjurmimin e zhvillimeve me te reja te artit bashkekohor ne vend.

Why does gravity make things fall?

The exhibition is curated by Tina Finnäs.

TICA is proud to announce the launch of its extended residency program:

TICA A.I.R. LAB

The AIR LAB consists of a re-worked profile of the existing artist in residency program of TICA. Through the generous support of Princ Claus Culturfund, and as part of the Network Partnership grant of the foundation, TICA AIRLAB will be able to organize two residency periods per year, for a period of three years. The residencies will be thematic, with a different theme to be explored every year. The residencies will also be multidisciplinary, with a focus on contemporary art but extending to other forms of expression, including theater, music, performance and architecture. Two other novelties within AIRLAB are the sending of one Albanian artist at a residency abroad, and a yearly digital publication, with documentation of the works and theoretical contributions on the yearly theme of the residency.
