From February 18 to April 30, 2025, all visual artists living in Germany are invited to take part in the survey “Von der Kunst zu leben. The economic and social situation of visual artists”.
The survey, which takes place at regular intervals, is being carried out this year for the first time on behalf of the Federal Association of Visual Artists (BBK) and the Stiftung Kunstfonds. The aim of the survey is to collect well-founded data on the nationwide situation of artists. The results are of central importance to the BBK for a strong representation of interests vis-à-vis politics and administration. At the same time, they will help the Stiftung Kunstfonds to review the suitability of its funding programs.
Take part in the survey! Help to make central aspects of the visual arts profession as well as the economic and social situation of artists visible.
The final report on the survey will be published in fall 2025 and will be conducted by Prognos AG. The study is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media.
The survey will run until April 30, 2025
