Together with its long-time project partners from tranzit, Igor Zabel Association and Kontakt Collection/WHW Akademija, ERSTE Foundation selected the participants for the two months long Artist-in-Residence Programme at Q21/MuseumsQuartier in Vienna.

Áron Kútvölgyi-Szabó (artist) from Hungary

The Artist-in-Residence Programme at Q21/MuseumsQuartier in Vienna is part of ERSTE Foundation’s long-term endeavor to support contemporary art and to strengthen the situation of its creators, especially in the region of Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe. The residence program is realized together by tranzit, Igor Zabel Association and Kontakt Collection who will collaborate with the WHW Akademija. 

These residencies are designed for artists, curators and theoreticians from Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia working in the field of contemporary visual art to do research in their respective area. The research character of the residence should make it possible to take a break from the everyday strenuous production pressure and find time to concentrate on a specific interest. The participants are given the opportunity to live and work for the period of two months in one of the MuseumsQuartier studios right in the heart of Vienna. During the stay various meeting possibilities are offered to the participants and each residence grants a monthly stipend of EUR 1.050,00.
