[artinfo] call: Studio Grant Program for Women Artists

[by way of Janos Sugar]

Founded in 2010 on the grounds of the historic Malzfabrik, District Berlin
offers an interdisciplinary think and work space for the collaborative
intersection of art and other fields of knowledge. District`s focus rests
on artistic ideas that deal with urban space and its appropriation as well
as a new understandings of the commons. Taking its de-centralized location
as conceptual premise, District offers a platform for the articulation of
perspectives which are currently at the margins of political and cultural
representation.

District`s Studio Grant Program concentrates explicitly on the promotion
of contemporary women artists. Since 2010, District has awarded the studio
grant to visual artists with the aim to open a room where long-term
dialogues between artistic, curatorial, research and educational practices
can evolve.

The next scholarship holder will be awarded the use of a 15 m©— studio in
the District building for a period of 6 months from August 1, 2015 to
January 31, 2016. There are no restrictions based on nationality or age.
Unfortunately there is no funding for any travel or accommodation
expenses.

Please apply with a CV, a work proposal for the 6 months, a portfolio of
no more than 10 pages (max. 3 MB) and, if necessary, maximum two links to
stream videos by Friday, May 29th, 2015.

Send applications to post at district-berlin.com.
