University of Gothenburg - Carl Larsson Foundation

Carl Larsson Foundation scholarship

You will receive a one-off cash prize for outstanding artistic achievement. In recent years, this has amounted to approximately 48,000 SEK (around 4,200 EUR), which is paid as a lump sum. The Carl Larsson Foundation at the University of Gothenburg awards several prizes each year to students at its art colleges. A prize winner also receives the Grez Scholarship: a two-month stay at the Hôtel Chevillon guest house in Grez-sur-Loing, France, as well as an additional cash sum. The prizes recognise works that are assessed primarily on the basis of quality, independence and originality.
