Description

The municipality and the joint municipality of Meinersen have set themselves the goal of promoting young contemporary art and simultaneously providing fresh impetus to the region's cultural offerings. To further this goal, they are offering a scholarship with a residency at the Meinersen Artists' House. The scholarship is for a maximum of twelve months. The scholarship period begins on October 1, 2026, by arrangement. The organization and administration of the scholarship have been entrusted to the Meinersen Artists' House Association (Künstlerhaus Meinersen e.V.).

This year's scholarship theme is painting, which continues to hold its place within the diversity of media in contemporary art. All forms of expression that engage with the phenomenon of painting, its tradition as well as its current relevance, are welcome. There are no limits to the formal or conceptual interpretation of painting.

Description

Through this open call we are looking for our ninth Incidental Artist. This is not imagined as a placement at either the School of Art or Eastside Projects, but as an opportunity to spend time working in and with the city, supported by and connected to both organisations, with funding from the Wheatley Fellowship and Eastside Projects.

As APG proposed, Incidental Artists begin with an open brief and the freedom to ‘watch the doings and listen to the noises’ in a particular context. This period of R&D builds into a Feasibility Study and a proposal that is developed and realised through collaboration with Eastside Projects. Previous projects have varied in scale, complexity, and ambition and therefore timelines are responsive to ideas, but as a guide we would hope to achieve some kind of public outcome within 12 - 18 months of the start date.
