Assignments and financing
An important objective of CBK Rotterdam is to strengthen the (income) position of visual artists in Rotterdam. We do this by means of financing schemes and giving and creating assignments to artists. This produces tangible results, for the artists and for the city. As a result, Rotterdam is increasingly becoming a vibrant metropolis with an active and attractive visual arts sector.
In 2019, 307 commissions were given to artists, institutions and organizations in the field of visual arts. One or more assignments went to:

Art Office, Development and Research scheme

We also encourage opportunities for international Artists-in-Residence in Rotterdam.

Investment contribution
With the Investment Contribution scheme, CBK Rotterdam gives an impulse to the professional practice of Rotterdam artists by co-financing with commissioning. The contribution is always intended for the fees of the artist involved. The aim of the contribution is to develop artist's practices and to increase their visibility in the city. Clients of visual artists who are registered with CBK Rotterdam can apply for this contribution together with the artist concerned.
In 2019, 11 Rotterdam visual artists received a fee through an Investment Contribution for a combined amount of € 33.750:
Art Index Rotterdam, Gyz La Rivière, Helmut Smits, Martijn de Jong aka Martijn Beelden, Milou van Ham, Monice Janson, Ondine de Kroon, Foundation Mesh, Stacii Samidin.
artistic activities in the city
CBK Rotterdam has a direct relationship with the city and the parties working in it. In this large network, we ensure that the role of the visual arts and the artist's professional practice remains on the radar and is strengthened. This contribution has a positive influence on the dynamics of the city through visual art. Artists work with specific attention on a wide variety of subjects. They work together with knowledge, infiltrate areas, expose questions and activate the city. Sometimes this is done on the initiative of the artist, but usually this is done on behalf of small or large public events. The contribution is intended for, for example, art and cultural organizations, artists, artists' initiatives and other city creators who assign a clear role to visual art or (Rotterdam) artist (s).
In 2019, 26 activities received a contribution in the context of Activities City for a joint amount of € 96.970:
Catinca Tilea for Time said: Can You See Me, Samira Ben Laloua for Extra Extra Night 2019, Marieke van der Lippe for Video portraits MK Award 2019, Sue Anne van Geijn for Galerie Lecq 2019, Lucie Havel for Exhibition Carla Bayle 2019, Fieldwork for Confessi Confetti, Israel Páez for City illustrator 2019, Stichting HIJS for Pow!

BKOR
BKOR (Visual Arts & Public Space) manages and renews the extensive city collection in collaboration with involved Rotterdammers, companies and institutions. BKOR takes care of the management and maintenance of more than 500 works of art from the Rotterdam Sculpture Collection and advises the municipality, citizens and artists with regard to the realization, placement, relocation and remediation of public works of art. BKOR mediates between the demand from the city for art and urban embellishment and the supply of (Rotterdam) artists. BKOR is a knowledge and documentation center with regard to all public works of art in Rotterdam.
Sculpture International Rotterdam
Sculpture International Rotterdam (SIR) is the collection of the city's international stature, interwoven with temporary interactive works, performances, (film) exhibitions on the walls of the city and knowledge transfer in many forms. SIR is an ongoing research into the role of art in the public space and into forms of autonomous art that do not lose their connection with the social context. This makes the SIR collection a vibrant collection in conversation with the city and its residents.
