The Artangel Collection is a national initiative to enable notable film and video installations commissioned and produced by Artangel over the past 20 years to be presented in galleries and museums across the UK.
Over the last four years 20 museum and gallery partners around the UK have worked closely with Artangel on presentations of works from The Artangel Collection by artists and film-makers including Francis Alÿs, Yael Bartana, Jeremy Deller, Atom Egoyan, Douglas Gordon, Bethan Huws, Mike Kelley, Tony Oursler and Catherine Yass. The collection continues to grow, most recently with an installation by Ben Rivers.
From autumn 2015, Artangel is making available an annual fund of £25,000 to enable significant presentations of works from The Artangel Collection. In the first year of operation, from autumn 2015 to autumn 2016, between £2,500- £7,500 will be available to museums, galleries or arts organisations towards the costs of solo exhibitions or curatorial projects which foreground works from The Artangel Collection.
Priority will be given to partners with a demonstrable need. Funding can be allocated towards the costs of equipment hire and installation, specialist technical advice, as well as on occasion other installation costs or in support of artist’s travel. We recognise that the needs of our partners are varied and we are happy to respond flexibly and pragmatically to individual proposals.
