Concentration on the work, reflection and discussion are central to the residency.
Residents are supported on an artistic, technical and theoretical level by internationally recognized artists, art critics, curators and other advisors. Technical specialists advise on research, experiment and production; technical facilities with a broad range are at hand.
Resident artists pursue all major contemporary visual art disciplines: painting, drawing, photography, printmaking, sculpture, video, film, sound and new media, and can link up with other disciplines such as architecture, theatre, music, dance, literature and film.
