Conceptual Art Residencies in Berlin

Dekoloniale Berlin

Berlin, Germany

Dekoloniale Berlin Residency, organized by Dekoloniale Memory Culture in the City, invites artists, architects, designers, directors, photographers, fashion designers, and urban practitioners to create interventions addressing colonial histories in Berlin's public spaces, culminating in presentations at the Dekoloniale Festival. Residents receive access to a project space, curatorial guidance, production support, travel costs, accommodation, per diem, production budget, and a fee, with mandatory participation in workshops. The program typically spans about 6 months, from mid-May to mid-November, focusing on collaborative and interdisciplinary decolonial practices.

Stiftung Starke

Berlin, Germany

The Stiftung Starke Artist in Residence program in Berlin supports emerging artists under 40 from all genres with 3-12 month residencies including free living and studio space, a stipend, and exhibition opportunities at the Löwenpalais. Established artists can access short-term guest apartments, while projects receive scientific accompaniment by international curators. Applications are accepted year-round by an independent jury, though fellows cover their own energy costs.
