On-line Residency

This virtual format has operated alongside the On-site Residency in Berlin since 2020. The online model remains available for artists from all disciplines, given that many of them are unable to travel to Berlin for various reasons; however, this enables them to develop their artistic practice, research and communication through weekly one-to-one curatorial tutorials, regular group meetings, occasional professional workshops and exchanges with art professionals, such as curators and galleries, based in Berlin. All of this is organised in accordance with each artist’s availability and time zone.

Residency costs

•  Program Fees 300 € monthly - can be paid in three installments with the first installment in advance to secure the spot on the program.

The program includes:

• CURATORIAL SUPPORT: Individual, weekly advice from an international curator, who provides guidance and support through in-person meetings, video calls or telephone calls, broadening the creative experience and opening up new professional horizons in the art field.
• GROUP MEETINGS Weekly group meetings with your residency group and curator provide opportunities for continuous feedback and discussion.
• PROGRAM EVENTS: A range of workshops are organised on important topics for professional artists, such as ‘arts marketing tools’ and ‘how to create your own portfolio and CV’.
• EXTERNAL CURATOR: A professional from Berlin (a curator, gallery representative or cultural manager) is invited via videoconference to hold a one-to-one meeting with each artist to evaluate their work, offering constructive critical feedback that will help the artist to view their work from a different perspective.
• CATALOGUE: At the end of the Program, GlogauAIR prints a collective catalogue featuring the work of all participants; this publication will also be available on our website (link). Every artist is assigned a page to present their artist statement text and an image of their artwork. Online artists will receive three printed copies by post.
• SOCIAL MEDIA AND ART PLATFORMS: During the Program, GlogauAIR runs an ongoing digital campaign through the most popular social media and art platforms, showcasing the artists and promoting their work, both individually and as a group. GlogauAIR’s presence on Instagram is particularly significant, with over 20,000 followers; through the ‘Instagram takeover’, followers can take a look at the artistic practice and creative process of GlogauAIR’s artists.
• [VIRTUAL] OPEN STUDIOS EXHIBITION: An individually customized online presentation of each and every one of the artistic projects completed during the Program reinterpreted virtually. The event provides global access to our Residence Program and offers artists the opportunity to share their work with their own network of contacts, regardless of their location.
• MEMBERSHIP OF THE GLOGAUAIR COMMUNITY: All participants will be added to ‘GlogauAIR Community’ web archive (link), where everyone can view the artists’ profiles with documentation of their work.  Artists can update their profiles and share them free of charge, as if it were their own website. GlogauAIR also keeps the entire community informed about opportunities such as grants, awards and funding, as well as announcing important developments in the artists’ careers, such as publicizing their upcoming exhibitions.
