Edith-Russ-Haus Grant

The Foundation of Lower Saxony grant at the Edith-Russ-Haus for Media Art supports a wide spectrum of media art, from video art and net-based projects to audio works and audio-visual installations. Each of the three grants will be awarded to produce a new project in the area of media art. Both individual artists and artist groups can apply.

The grant is valid for a duration of six months (July–December 2023). It cannot be prolonged and residency is compulsory; grant recipients can expect to stay in Oldenburg at least one month.

Beyond the grant amount of €12,500 and the possibility of using one of the guest apartments at the Edith-Russ-Haus, no further costs will be covered during the residency (such as technical means, production means, travel expenses, and living expenses incurred during the grant period).

The project or artistic work should be completed within the six-month duration of the grant. However, an extension up until April 2024 can be negotiated.
