Studio program for Art, Architecture and Theory
In the framework of the studio program, six studio grants are given to outstanding applicants in the areas of art, architecture and theory. Recipients are granted individual workspaces on the third floor of the Künstlerhaus. They also have complimentary access to the various workshops.
The fellows are determined annually by a jury of Künstlerhaus board members based upon submitted applications. The studio grant begins March 1 each year.
The announcement for the upcoming studio grants as of March 2013 will be published in September 2012.
