For international artists and art theorists of all disciplines, scholarship places with living and working space in Graz are awarded within the framework of a call for applications, on the recommendation of a jury of experts and according to the decision of the Styrian provincial government.

Eligible are artists, cultural workers and art theorists from the European and non-European area, who are looking for the examination of the art and culture in Styria. The fellows are supported and networked by cultural initiatives in Graz. A presentation of the work is planned during the stay. The duration of the stay depends on the scope of the artistic/art-theoretical project and on the decision of the jury.
