In the Field

Scholarship programme

closed event

30 May
8 June

Love is the answer! The scholarship programme In the Field overcomes national borders and brings together 15 emerging artists and cultural workers from a radius of 300 kilometres around Vienna for an intense exchange of knowledge and practices. In encounters with international artists and the local scene, In the Field explores artistic approaches for softening hardened positions in art and society. Mentoring will be provided by Isabel Lewis – artist, choreographer, and professor for performance.

With the support of Erste Bank
