Tallinn Art Hall and Goethe-Institut Estland are inviting artists living in Germany for a residency in Tallinn between 4 September – 30 October 2022. The residency complements Tallinn Art Hall’s ongoing exhibition series which pays special attention both to the possibility of being good and to ecological responsibility in conditions of certain destruction.
The aim of the residency programme is to spur artistic research and discourse on the topics of ecological awareness, environmental sustainability and the ethics of making art. The organisers are therefore especially interested in artists whose work advocates awareness, innovation, or revolution towards a better relationship between our planet, humans and non-human beings.
Selected artists can use the residency for research or writing pertinent to their interests. During the residency, the artist is also invited to organise or participate in at least two public events at Tallinn Art Hall, e.g. a talk, presentation, workshop, walk etc.
The applicants must mainly work and live in Germany. Deadline for submitting applications is 15 March. More information about Open Call criteria can be found here.
