What do we mean by emerging artists?
In this fund, emerging artists are not defined in terms of age, but rather by their novelty to programmers and festival audiences, their potential to ‘break through’ internationally and to impact the artistic field in their discipline(s): a chance such artists did not have before.
By artists, we mean: individual artists or companies of any size and artistic genre.
