- The objective of this paper is two-folded. Firstly, the paper aims at identifying and presenting the variables of the geography of artists, i.e. the parameters which interactively takes part in deciding the geography of an artist. Secondly, the paper aims at presenting how different geographies are chosen for different phases of the artistic production cycle, hence explaining how the combination of city life and countryside becomes a way of promoting creativity. The paper is based on two different qualitative interview studies, carried out during 2008 and 2009, covering different categories of artists and creatives. One study focuses on artists early in their career paths; the other on artists later on in life. Both studies have sampled artists by education and professional title with connection to West Sweden.
