Of mountains and landscapes
The highlights of this year's programme include 
the course offered by Congolese artist 
<https://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=2690&N=25516&L=172673&F=H>Sammy 
Baloji together with writer and curator 
<https://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=2690&N=25516&L=172673&F=H>Lotte 
Arndt. Under the title Hunting & collecting, the 
course is geared not only towards all manner of 
artists, but also to curators, art historians, 
anthropologists and anyone else interested. 
Considering the tradition of mining in Salzburg 
and in the Congo, a starting-point might be the 
landscape, to research post-colonial traces in 
the present. Works can be produced in a wide 
variety of media, including photography, sound, 
installation, text, painting and sculpture, or as 
an exhibition concept, essay or academic paper.

The Stone Sculpture course directed by 
<https://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=2690&N=25516&L=172671&F=H>Karin 
Reichmuth also deals, in a different way, with 
landscape, or rather, mountain. The Summer 
Academy offers a unique opportunity to live and 
work for four weeks in the quarry on the 
Untersberg. Under the title Listen to the stone, 
participants will be introduced to techniques of 
working with stone, while enjoying the magical, 
intensive atmosphere of living right at the 
origin of the material.

<https://interspire.e-flux.com/link.php?M=2690&N=25516&L=172672&F=H>Michael 
Beutler, too, takes a mountain as the 
starting-point of his course in sculpture and 
installation-the very mountain on which 
Hohensalzburg Fortress stands. There, on site-the 
location of the Summer Academy for the past 66 
years-the course entitled In the conglomerate 
will deal with selection and combination of the 
materials.

Grants
The Summer Academy offers numerous grants, 
usually covering participation fee only. 
Application deadline is April 3, 2019.
