Short Description
The Arthur Boskamp-Stiftung is inviting submissions for two art awards for the 2025/26 cycle.
The call for proposals is aimed at artists with participatory practices and/or artistic researchers who address current issues at the intersection of art, science, ecology, and sustainability and open up new perspectives on ecological and social issues. The award offers space for experimental research approaches, the development of new works, and projects with open-ended outcome.

M.1, the Arthur Boskamp-Stiftung’s building in Hohenlockstedt, offers plenty of production space and tranquillity for concentrated artistic work. The awardees can use a furnished apartment in M.1 free of charge for up to two months by arrangement. The apartment is very family-friendly due to its size and is located on the same floor as the spacious and bright studio. Children and partners are welcome during a residency stay.
