About CRIR
Address: Mælkebøtten 210
DK-1440 Copenhagen, Denmark
Christiania Researcher in Residence (CRIR) offers
residency for artists and academic researchers with a
specific interest in Christiania as an important field of
study.
Plans for a renovated CRIR house 2024-25
The steering group has decided to give the present CRIR
house a major makeover
and encourage all previous residents, neighbors and
Mælkebøtten inhabitants to envolve in discussions for the
bettering of the house.
Aid
We are thankful to Andreas Kupsch that has helped os
tremendously through the last 8 years,
Christiania and the community Mælkebøtten that have
granted us financial aid in the "third part deal" -
"Trediedelsordning"
and
the Copenhagen Authority that has granted us financial aid
from the "Energy Renovation aid", "Energirenoveringspulje"

New CRIR house
why CRIR?
The aim of the Christiania Researcher in Residence project
is to involve artists, researchers and academics in an
open, critical and reflective dialogue around the free
town Christiania in Copenhagen, and to feed new creative
and critical thinking into the public realm.
Since 2004 the CRIR house has hosted researchers from
around the world with a particular interest in Christiania
as a research area. Christiania’s insight and experience
into local organisation, alternative architecture,
lifestyle, culture, sustainable environments, quality of
life, democracy and innovation is unique in the world and
could generate important knowledge that may inspire new
urban thinking.
Researchers/residents are invited to live in Christiania
for short periods, depending on the nature and needs of
their proposed projects, typically up to one month.They
are asked to consider their project’s expected visibility
and how it may contribute to public debate – whether in
the form of an academic text, a public lecture, an event,
an artwork, a conference or an exhibition.
Applicants are asked to consider how their project can be
communicated internally in Christiania. Residents will
have access to support and guidance as well as a
historical archive from a network of Christiania
residents. Various venues and public spaces may be
available for events, exhibitions and public
presentations.
The House
The CRIR house is financed by the Christiania community
fund and is hosted by the area of Mælkebøtten (one of
Christiania´s fourteen community regions).
The house is about 25 Square metres (270 square feet). It
has a dining room with an alcove for sleeping, toilet,
bedroom with a double bed and a kitchen with a small
shower. It has central heating and the front of the house
has a large covered porch.
CRIR will supply bedding, towels, free broadband internet.
There is access to a shared pay-per-wash washing machine.
The CRIR house must be kept in order and cleaned by the
resident. Bed covers, towels etc. will be washed by the
housekeeper. The house is booked for one resident at a
time, for a maximum of 1 month (but the resident can
invite whoever to stay along!). Please bear in mind that
the neighborhood is quiet and residential.

Christiania Researcher in
Residence formål
CRIR tilbyder bolig for forskere og kunstnere fra
hele verden med specifik interesse i Christiania som
studieobjekt.
CRIR har til formål at få kunstnere, forskere og
akademikere i åben og kritisk dialog om fristaden
Christiania, og vil formidle kreative og kritiske tanker i
det offentlige rum.
Siden 2004 har CRIR inviteret forskere og kunstnere fra
Danmark, Norge, England, Belgien, Lithauen, Sverige,
Østrig, Frankrig og USA med specifik interesse i
Christiania.
Christianias kendskab og viden om lokal organisering,
alternativ arkitektur, livsstil, kultur , bæredygtighed,
livskvalitet, demokrati og fornyelse er enestående og kan
måske skabe vigtig kendskab til nye bymæssige
samlivsformer.
Forskere og kunstnere inviteres til at bo på Christiania i
en kortere periode, typisk under eller op til 1 måned. De
bliver bedt om at beskrive hvordan deres projekt forventes
publiceret og hvordan det forventes at fremstå i den
offentlige debat – hvad enten det er i form af en
akademisk tekst, et offentligt seminar eller foredrag, en
event, kunst, en konference eller udstilling. Ansøgerne
bedes også beskrive hvordan deres projekt kan
vises/fremføres internt på Christiania.
CRIR-Gæsten vil få begrænset hjælp og vejledning, og
adgang til en historisk viden gennem et netværk af
christianitter. Diverse lokaler og offentlige rum står så
vidt som muligt til rådighed for gæsternes events,
udstillinger eller præsentationer. Der ydes ikke økonomisk
hjælp til underhold. Grundbeløb, el, vand, varme og
tøjvask betales af gæsten.
