For the 14th time, Akademie
Schloss Solitude is granting approximately 70 residency fellowships of three to
twelve months in duration. More than 1,000 artists from around 100 countries
have developed and advanced projects at the Akademie since its opening in 1990,
creating a close-knit, global network of Solitude alumni that expands from year
to year. The Akademie pursues an intense exchange between artistic and
scientific disciplines. With the art, science & business program the
transfer of knowledge and experience between the arts, the sciences and
economics can be deepened to create new synergies of creativity, inventiveness
and management.
