The program offers two types of grants to support artists and researchers working across diverse media and methodologies in art, architecture, design, and social and urban studies: Artistic Research Grant and Production Grant. The Artistic Research Grant supports an interdisciplinary research project addressing contemporary topics, particularly concerning societal and environmental issues. The Production Grant supports an artistic production that engages with the moving image’s dynamic, diverse, and evolving nature while responding to pressing societal and environmental issues. Applicants for both grants are encouraged to focus on critical and timely issues at the intersection of art and design, technology, and ecology.

This program is geared towards artists from Turkiye who investigate contemporary social questions through interdisciplinary approaches. Artists from Türkiye (living in or outside of Turkey) or artists living in Turkey can apply.

Each project will receive funding support of 20,000 EUR. The program will also cover an optional trip to Madrid and additional costs to present the research outcomes and body of works produced within the scope of the grant program in an exhibition scheduled for early 2026 at Salt Galata in Istanbul.
