Oberegg, St. Anton

Application deadline: Oct 31, 2018

Once again, the Bibliothek Andreas Züst is conducting an open call for three studio residency stipends for stays in April 2019.

Located at a majestic site on the Appenzell Alps, the residency program offers the best working conditions for inspiration and concentration. For a stay in April 2019, application submissions will be accepted until 31 October 2018 from national and international cultural workers (individuals or teams of up to four persons) in all disciplines (e.g., visual arts, literature, new media, music, theatre, design, architecture, film, photography as well as applied arts and art-related sciences including art history). The duration of the stay is exclusively limited to four full weeks. Accommodations are provided at the Alpenhof Panoramaherberge. Depending on the Alpenhof’s bookings, the lodge can be bustling with activity or very quiet. The stay is on a self-organized basis.

The Bibliothek Andreas Züst includes approximately 10,400 titles on topics ranging from, e.g., the weather, geology, astronomy, physics, literature, photography, art, kitsch, and popular culture. Sought are projects that deal with the Bibliothek as a whole or one of its sub-sections. Thereby we are especially interested in how the main focus of the creative work is brought into relation with the cosmos of the Bibliothek. The stipend award includes a free-of-charge stay as well as travel expenses to the Alpenhof. A subsistence allowance of CHF 250/week may be additionally requested.
