STYRIA-ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE-Scholarship (St.A.i.R.) OF THE REGIONAL GOVERNMENT OF STYRIA 2025

ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE STYRIA-ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE-Scholarship (St.A.i.R.) OF THE REGIONAL GOVERNMENT OF STYRIA 2025

For one Greek artist and/or art theorist in Graz IN COLLABORATION WITH SNEHTA RESIDENCY

Snehta Residency is happy to announce its collaboration with the Regional Government of Styria, in the context of which one Greek artist and/or theorist will be granted the St. A.i.R studio scholarship in Styria, Graz (Austria) during September and October 2025. On behalf of the Governor Mr. Christopher Drexler the Regional Government of Styria allocates one scholarship for a young emerging Greek artist/theorist for the year 2025. This scholarship will be for one Greek artist of all fields as well as for an art theorist. There is no individual legal claim to be allocated a scholarship position. Entitled to participate are artists and art theorists who look for contacts with artists and the creativescene in Graz, Styria. They will receive a monthly payment of EUR 1.100,-- for subsistence. The scholarship requires the presence of the artist/theorist. A room with private bath plus a shared kitchen is available at the outstanding baroque Priesterseminar in the very city centre. However, it is not possible to be accompanied by other people (family members, friends…) or pets. An appropriate level of courtesy, respect and communicativeness is therefore expected of the scholars. The care and networking of the scholar take place through cultural initiatives in Graz, who also arrange a working space for the scholar. A presentation of selected works or an artist-talk is scheduled. The period of the scholarship is from September/October 2025 (two months). The scholar has to pay for his/her travel costs and his/her material expenses. Furthermore, he/she has to bear costs of all necessary insurances (health, liability and accident insurance) as well as for travel formalities. At the start of the scholarship, scholars must submit their policies for medical insurance, accident insurance and liability insurance valid for the duration of their stay abroad; otherwise, scholars will not be accepted on the residency programme.
