Together with the German Dance Archive Cologne, the archive of the Fotowerkstätte Schmölz, the Greven Archive Digital as well as the LVR-Landesmuseum Bonn and FrauenMediaTurm Cologne, the program invites you to “immerse yourself in diverse photographic collections, stories and discourses and develop your own discussions and projects.” The call is open worldwide.
The residencies will take place in the summer of 2026 in the participating archives and collections. The resulting solo exhibitions will be shown as part of the Photoszene Festival in May 2027. Travel and accommodation costs for the residency are covered as well as a fee of €4,500, divided into €1,500 for the residency, €1,500 for the conception of the project and €1,500 for the realization of the exhibition. The fee at the German Dance Archive Cologne amounts to 3 x 3,000 euros.
