Description

Artists from the disciplines of architecture, visual arts, performing arts, design, literature and time-based media are invited to apply until March 30, 2017. All former and current fellows of Akademie Schloss Solitude are invited to apply.

The collaboration is based on the development of Platform 12, an experimental space designed by the artistic duo Wimmelforschung in collaboration with Bosch as part of Bosch’s new center for research and advance engineering. The platform serves as a creative hub and room for reflection as well as communication for all researchers. It offers an environment that allows its employees to work independently from the organizational structure of the company. As an essential feature, Platform 12 contains a permanent collaboration with Akademie Schloss Solitude, in the framework of which artists of various disciplines intervene into the company’s structure and organization as indirect observers and instigators from outside.

The fellowship is a residence fellowship; continuous daily presence (Mo-Fr) on Platform 12 is mandatory;
Prior to the fellowship there is minimum one-day attendance mandatory for orientation as well as a first meeting with Wimmelforschung and Robert Bosch GmbH in Stuttgart and an interview before and after the fellowship;

If applicable, a project-related budget for the realization of a project;
A combined apartment studio, furnished with electricity, water and heat free of charge;
For the duration of the fellowship the respective artist in her or his role as agent will be mentored by Wimmelforschung and Akademie Schloss Solitude.
