Description

The Bösenberg Foundation, in cooperation with the Künstlerhaus Meinersen, is offering an art scholarship for visual artists to stay at the Künstlerhaus Meinersen in 2026. “Smiling” has a magical effect. The “Mona Lisa smile” is the most expensive painting in the world, and a subtle smile often elicits special reactions from others. The scholarship focuses on the artistic exploration of the phenomenon of “smiling.”

The scholarship includes a monthly stipend of €1,000 and rent-free accommodation at the Künstlerhaus Meinersen (living space and studio). At the end of the scholarship, a solo exhibition will be held at the Künstlerhaus Meinersen.
