HBK Braunschweig is now accepting applications from visual artists and sound artists for their 12-month fellowships. There are two sound art fellowships and five visual arts fellowships.
The programme is aimed at artists, who would like to work on a project in the immediate vicinity of HBK Braunschweig. With their project proposal, fellows should make a significant contribution towards the further development of forms of artistic practice. All fellows will be assigned a mentor, who will help with the integration into university life. Fellows will have the opportunity to present the current status of their artistic project within the university
The fellowship holder is expected to spend at least 8 months during the HBK lecture period on site in Braunschweig, as well as participate in the Welcome Weeks, which take place from 19 to 30 April 2027.
A requirement for a successful application is that the applicant has successfully completed an art degree and that they show proof of extensive artistic practice and exhibition participation.
Funding is provided in the form of a stipend totalling 1,600 EUR per month over a period of 12 months. A studio apartment in Braunschweig, designed for one person, will be made available rent-free for the duration of the fellowship. There will be an allowance for project and travel costs. A contribution of 250 EUR per month towards incidental living costs must be paid by the fellows.
