Künstlerhaus Bethanien International Residency (Berlin, Germany)

Friday Abroad (14th August): Künstlerhaus Bethanien International Residency (Berlin, Germany)

Category: The Showcase / Fully Funded International Artist Residency

• The Opportunity: Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin is accepting applications for its prestigious international studio residency program. As one of Europe's premier cultural centers, they invite international visual artists and sculptors to spend 12 months in the heart of Berlin's contemporary art scene.

• The "Lighthouse" Advantage: Bethanien provides world-class workshop access and dedicated exhibition spaces. They value heavy physical experimentation, structural concepts, and material integrity—giving artists who deal in unyielding physical media an exceptional institutional platform.

• The Benefit: Fully funded. Selected artists receive a spacious private studio apartment/workspace, monthly living stipends, technical workshop support, and a dedicated solo exhibition in the Bethanien galleries, backed by a published monograph/catalog.

• Maker Level: Intermediate to Professional.

• Deadline: 15th September 2026.

The stories behind my artwork, the opportunities in The Lighthouse, and the reflections of the Morning Muse are my ways of keeping the lamp lit for our creative community. These resources will always be free to access. If they have found you at the right time, consider fueling the forge to help keep the fire burning. Your support, in any amount, is deeply appreciated.
