AW: [echo] INTERNATIONAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAMME FOR VISUAL ARTS AND THEORY

Wed Nov 5 01:06:10 CET 2008

ja, sicher kann der dillemuth nichts für die höhe des betrages,  
dennoch kann man mal anmerken, dass es ziemlich peinlich ist, ein  
stipendium, das so niedirg dotiert ist, so aufgeblasen anzukündigen.   
wenn es eine residency ist mit anwesenheitspflicht und insbesondere  
personen aus dem ausland ermuntert werden, sich zu bewerben, wie soll  
das gehen??

ein derartiges stipendium, das die fellows ernst nimmt und deren  
arbeit dürfte nicht unter 1500 euro dotiert sein. und vielleicht  
könnte herr dillemuth  darauf als jurymitglied ja durchaus hinweisen.

>>> [International Fellowship Programme]
>>>
>>> With its Fellowship Programme for Visual Arts and Theory,
>>> Buchsenhausen
>>> actively promotes internationally relevant art production,
>>> research, and
>>> discussion in the region of Tyrol.
>>>
>>> The programme's aims are:
>>>
>>> * To improve the production of a qualified discourse on art
>>> and society
>>> in the local and global context;
>>>
>>> * To improve exchange between cultural producers in the
>>> visual arts and
>>> beyond (creating a network of experts);
>>>
>>> * To support and expand the critical, socially relevant
>>> artistic and
>>> art-theoretical production of knowledge;
>>>
>>> * To facilitate the transfer of knowledge between the art
>>> field and the
>>> public outside the art context.
>>>
>>> The programme brings together the advantages of a residency
>>> with the
>>> possibilities of a postgraduate non-university lectureship,
>>> without
>>> offering a formalized educational programme. In terms of
>>> content, the
>>> programme addresses a worldwide public made up of
>>> professionals in the
>>> fields of contemporary art, architecture, art and media
>>> theory and
>>> criticism.
>>>
>>> The fellows, selected by expert jurors, find excellent
>>> working
>>> conditions in Buchsenhausen, while the city of Innsbruck
>>> and its
>>> surrounding area offer an interesting setting in terms of
>>> its art,
>>> culture, and landscape. The grant and the residency not
>>> only allow
>>> fellows to work on their proposed projects, but also give
>>> them the
>>> chance to experiment and to reconsider their current
>>> practice.
>>>
>>> The conveyance and discussion of the fellow’s own work
>>> occurs parallel
>>> to the development of the individual projects. The public
>>> events take
>>> place in series. The focus of these series of events is
>>> determined by
>>> the respective emphases of the various fellows' works.
>>> Within the
>>> framework of this discursive format, the fellows (or their
>>> guests) can
>>> present various points in their research, open up their
>>> works-in-progress to critical discussion, interact with
>>> experts who they
>>> invite, work through content with the public, and/or try
>>> out new ways of
>>> working.
