a) Three (3) "Braunschweig PROJECTS" Scholarships for artists of Sound Art
b) Five (5) "Braunschweig PROJECTS" Scholarships for artists of Fine Arts
These scholarships are part of the promotion programme for artists of the Braunschweig University of Art and the State of Lower Saxony. This programme is aimed at young artists who are interested in working intensively on artistic projects in the close environment of an art university.
The involvement of the scholars in the HBK’s teaching and research activities is an essential component of the university’s programmes for the promotion of young talents. However, no fee payments, no lectureship or work as a lecturer can be derived from this involvement.
The project to be proposed by the applicant must constitute a material contribution to the ongoing development of the means of artistic expression.
No grant will be paid if, during the scholarship term, the applicant receives regular benefits from any third party (e.g. residency or work grants) or grants paid by the Federal State.
Upon completion of the scholarship term, the applicant will have to present his/her artistic project within the scope of an exhibition or performance or in any other equivalent way.
