ABOUT the IN//Between RESIDENCY

IN//BETWEEN is more than just an exhibition. IN//BETWEEN is about creating a space that does not belong to one artist, culture, language, art form, or discipline. It is a collaborative project that brings together artists from different mediums, cultures, and parts of the world. For four weeks, the selected artists examine how they have previously seen and done things and look to what lies ahead: an open canvas, a blank roll of film, a block of clay, an idea or vision that has not been thought of before. Throughout this residency, the artists collaborate to build a unique exhibition that showcases the nexus between cross-cultural dialogue, experience, and growth. They will create a space where diversity leads the way.

Who is this residency for?

This program is suited for any artist who can be based in Berlin during the residency and is open to discussions, feedback, and working in a group context. The program supports both emerging and established artists working in any medium. Applicants must exhibit foundational skills in collaboration, creating and exhibiting art through their portfolio submissions.

WHERE?

Green Hill Gallery is located in Friedrichshain, central Berlin, close to Warschauer Strasse - a district known for its creativity and diversity.

WHEN?

EXAMPLE OF YOUR WEEKLY SCHEDULE

Kulturschöpfer aims to form a varied program for the IN//BETWEEN. From bonding sessions and discussions to get to know the group in the first week, over KS events, artist talks, and gallery visits to fun community gatherings for drinks or dinner in the evening, the weekly residency schedule offers a lot to experience together! We are happy to support the artists with a flexible schedule, which can be changed spontaneously for their needs. The last weeks contain a lot of studio time for the group to work in the gallery and make their ideas become a reality.

some funding options

There are possible funding options available for artists worldwide, either on a global level or national level. We would also suggest looking for organizations and foundations supporting art. One could also find national strategies that support local artists in engaging with international artists to promote the local culture abroad.
