Established in mid-2014, the non-profit Kooshk residency in Tehran is committed to the development of Iranian art and culture through participation in international exchange programs with cultural institutes worldwide. At Kooshk, artists, curators, researchers, writers, and filmmakers engage in inter-cultural dialogues and art creation. The desired atmosphere encourages the blending of cultures, provokes creativity, and fosters mutually beneficial relationships between countries. Kooshk welcomes qualified individuals from all disciplines to contribute to this cultural movement by applying for their residency program.
