Who can apply?

The fellowship is aimed at artists, scholars, and cultural practitioners from around the world who have already developed an independent professional practice but are currently in an active phase of further growth – that is, they are no longer at the very beginning of their careers, but not yet firmly established. In general, this means at least two and no more than ten years of professional experience after completing an artistic or academic education, regardless of age. This timeframe serves as a guideline rather than a strict eligibility criterion. We are looking for applicants who are in a phase of consolidating their practice and who seek to engage in new contexts and interdisciplinary experiences. The application should clearly describe the current stage of the applicant’s professional or artistic development and explain why a residency at Akademie Schloss Solitude is particularly relevant at this point in their career. While the program primarily addresses practitioners with up to ten years of experience, applications from those with longer professional careers will also be considered if they clearly demonstrate the specific relevance of the fellowship to their current development.

In the spheres of practice Visual, Aural & Physical, Textual, Spatial, and Digital, the term »education« includes all forms of artistic qualification – such as studies at art academies or universities, vocational training, mentoring, master classes, or self-taught education. In the sphere of practice Scientific, a master’s degree or higher is required.

Applicants who are still in education or enrolled in a degree program (with the exception of doctoral candidates), as well as applicants who already hold a full professorship at a university, are excluded from the selection process.

Collectives of up to two people may apply for a fellowship, provided they have been working together artistically for at least two years.

Proficiency in German and/or English is required.
