Between Bridges is pleased to announce the open call for the next two biannual residencies for visual artists. One residency will take place from January to June 2024, the other from July to December 2024. They will each be divided into a five-month working phase and a one-month exhibition or public presentation. The upcoming recipients will follow artist and filmmaker Yalda Afsah (first half of 2023) and the collective Viscose (second half of 2023).
The residency is suitable for professional individual visual artists, artist duos or small groups working collaboratively. One or more visual artists will be supported, though artists enrolled at a university at the time of application are not eligible to apply (excluding artists enrolled in PhD programs). The criteria for awarding the residency is primarily the quality of the application and work submitted.
The residency includes the use of the facilities at Keithstraße 15 in Berlin Schöneberg on the ground floor of a residential building, with Wittenbergplatz subway station located nearby. The organisers regret that the rooms are not yet wheelchair accessible or suitable for living.
The residency includes a monthly stipend of 1500 EUR. It also offers the opportunity for studio visits with arts professionals from the network of Between Bridges. For the exhibition, a production budget will be granted. The exhibition connected to the first residency in 2024 will open at the end of April during Gallery Weekend Berlin. The exhibition connected to the second residency in 2024 will take place end of the year.
