The library Bibliothek Andreas Züst offers a temporary work and living space for duos and collectives from 21 July to 31 August 2025 for national and international cultural workers across disciplines – visual arts, literature, new media, music, theatre, design, architecture, film, photography, and art-related disciplines.
The studio residency stipend offers space for knowledge in the tradition of libraries. At the residency, questions are posed anew, points of view and creative processes are discussed and broken through from different perspectives, boundaries get blurred and are newly interwoven.
The studio residency stipend is aimed at duos and collectives (up to 5 people). Both established and newly founded teams that focus on collaborative work or want to try it out can apply. The organisers are looking for projects that deal with the library as a whole or one of its sub-areas. Applicants from abroad must have an entry permit for Switzerland. The call for applications is aimed at people who are residents in Europe. Applications from families or with children are welcome.
The Studio Residency Stipend includes place of residence, workspace and meals. The travel expenses as well as the contribution to living expenses/artistic production in the amount of 750 CHF can be reimbursed after arrival. Each recipient of a studio grant will receive a Half-Fare travelcard.
