Description

Back to Basics is a multidisciplinary residency program that allows artists to clear their minds, get back to focus, and (re)discover the very basis of their being. Take a break from your phone, reconnect with your creativity, be part of nature and learn to stay present again.

As the emphasis in this program is on reconnecting with your creative practice and being, no predetermined project plan is required. Participants are encouraged to arrive with their minds open for on-site observations, ideas, self-reflection and interacting with other residents. With support from the professional staff, facilities, and the program structure, Back to Basics allows you to go back to what matters to you.

Description

Together with the German Dance Archive Cologne, the Schmölz Photo Workshop Archive, the Greven Digital Archive, the FrauenMediaTurm Cologne, and the LVR-Landesmuseum Bonn, we invite artists to immerse themselves in diverse photographic collections, stories, and discourses and to develop their own explorations and projects.

The new edition of Artist Meets Archive once again brings together a wide range of different photographic archives and collections that highlight the complexity and versatility of photography: as a medium for reporting, feminist activism, documenting urban history and spatial change, or interpreting movement and dance (history).
