ORTE Architekturnetzwerk Niederösterreich in cooperation with AIR – Artist in Residence Niederösterreich awards three scholarships each year to creative artists from the field of building culture for a period of one to three months.

ORTE is dedicated to contemporary architecture education and building culture issues in Lower Austria and is interested in practice-related projects. They are looking for concepts for their residency that focus on environmental and climate issues as well as the living environments and local interaction, and are less interested in purely theoretical and scientific work or ones that address international phenomena not directly or clearly related to Lower Austria. The duration of the residency is currently one to three months.

In order to apply for an AIR scholarship, applicants must have completed their studies in a building culture field (architecture, urban development, urban planning, spatial planning, landscape planning, etc.). Austrian citizens and residents of Austria are excluded from the programme. Scholarship recipients are required to reside in Krems for a minimum of 80% of the scholarship duration.

ORTE offers an approximately 40 m² exhibition space in the Walter Zschokke Library in Krems. This ‘smallest building culture gallery in Austria’ can offer space for the works of some artists or architects in residence and present their artistic and analytical view of building culture and landscape themes in the region. Suitable exhibition displays are available for this exhibition space.

ORTE provides a studio and living space free of charge. Scholarship recipients will also be given a stipend of 1,300 EUR per month. ORTE provides residents with opportunities to network with the Austrian building culture scene and possibly even to present their work to a broad audience.
