Open Call for Büchsenhausen Fellowship Program

Jan. 12, 2021

Künstlerhaus Büchsenhausen invites visual and media artists, art critics, theorists and curators to apply for a five-month fellowship beginning in October 2021.

Künstlerhaus Büchsenhausen is a post-graduate center for production, research and exchange in the fields of visual arts and art theory. Within the framework of the Fellowship Program for Art and Theory, the institution provides a platform that facilitates the development and production of artistic and art-theoretical projects in a critical context. At the same time, it provides a forum for direct exchange between professionals—artists, theorists, critics, and curators—from the region and abroad, as well as a point of interaction with local, interested audiences.

The chosen Fellows will go to Büchsenhausen for a minimum of five months to work on realizing their proposed undertaking, and accompany this process with public events. For this purpose, Büchsenhausen assigns a monetary award of €3,700 as well as a production budget, a budget to facilitate the exchange with other experts and to partially cover the fellows’ own travel costs, free access to the working space and the available technical facilities, free lodging, as well as artistic and technical advice. This program is based on the idea of generating and maintaining a context for production and discussion, in which artists and theorists can connect and reflect on international art and societal discourses in relation to local topics and issues. All applications must be submitted by post. The jury’s decision will be communicated in written form in March 2021 (first stage) and April 2021 (second stage).
