Invitations are issued to artists, scientists and people with a desire to pursue their field of research in the context of the Gängeviertel.
Interesting questions, methods, and experimental curiosity are just as important to us as a connection to the Gängeviertel or topics related to it.
The work space/studio and accommodation are provided rent-free for the duration of the stay.
Furthermore, it is currently not possible to make any payment.
Publication of the work created during the residency is expressly encouraged. Form and content are left to the guest: All forms of output are welcome – from the classic exhibition or lecture to completely different, experimental formats.
If possible, the application should be made by post. The application documents should not be submitted on a CD/DVD (except for film/video), but only in printed form. When applying by e-mail, please use PDF files only.
The application should include the following documents:
A brief letter stating the desired length of stay (residency of up to three months is possible.)
Résumé / CV
Work projects and a short rationale as to why the Gängeviertel in particular is considered a suitable location. We do not expect fully elaborated concepts, just a short explanation or a rough draft indicating the intended direction of the work.
Documentation of previous work to illustrate the applicant's work approach and methods (e.g. pictures, short texts, etc.)
Where applicable, a portfolio of work samples (not mandatory)
