Grants for Media Art 2019 of the Foundation of Lower Saxony at the
Edith-Russ-Haus for Media Art
Application deadline: 6th of February 2019
The Edith-Russ-Haus for Media Art will award three Grants for Media Art of the
Foundation of Lower Saxony (€10,000 each).
The Foundation of Lower Saxony grant at the Edith-Russ-Haus for Media Art
supports a wide spectrum of media art, from video art and net-based projects to
audio works and audio-visual installations.
Each of the three grants will be awarded for the production of a new project in
the area of media art.
An international jury will convene to select the recipients of the grants.
Applicants must register for a user account on this website and submit via
online application by 6 February, 2019, 00:00 (CET). Applications submitted
after this date cannot be taken into consideration.
The grant is valid for a duration of six months (July–December 2019). It cannot
be prolonged and residency is compulsory; grant recipients can expect to stay
in Oldenburg at least one month.
- The project or artistic work should be completed within the six-month
duration of the grant. However, an extension up until April 2020 can be
negotiated.
- Only artists may submit an application; insitutions are ineligble.
- Only one application per person per year is permitted.
- Both individual artists and artist groups can apply; however, the grant
amount is the same for groups as for individuals. For artist groups, the
applicant whose name is provided as a contact will be considered responsible
for the project.
- If desired, grant recipients can apply to stay in a furnished guest apartment.
- Grant recipients are expected to be involved in the activities of the
Edith-Russ-Haus, including, for example, running workshops and giving
presentations and artist talks. The dates of such activities will be arranged
in consultation with the Edith-Russ-Haus.
- Beyond the grant amount of €10,000 and the possibility of using one of the
guest apartments at the Edith-Russ-Haus, no further costs will be covered
during the residency (such as technical means, production means, travel
expenses, and living expenses incurred during the grant period).
- A jury consisting of international experts will select the recipients of the
grants
- Only applications submitted through the online application system will be
taken into consideration. Applications sent via post or email, as well as any
extra materials received by post or email, will be disregarded and disposed of.
- The application may be submitted in either English or German. For German
applications, please additionally include an English translation of the summary
of the application, as the jury will consist of international participants.
- The grant recipients agree to allow the organizers to use images of their
artworks for publication, archiving, website, and communication and marketing
purposes without payment, as long as this use is directly related to the grant
program.
- An application is considered accepted when the applicant receives
confirmation via email. If the application does not adhere to the prescribed
requirements, the applicant will not receive an email confirmation.
- The Edith-Russ-Haus and the jury have the unilateral right to exclude
applications that do not conform to the above-listed requirements.
The Edith-Russ-Haus will handle all submitted information with great care. The
