Call for Applications: Balmoral Scholarships and Scholarships of the
Rhineland-Palatinate for 2008



Application Period for 2008 Scholarships: 15 May to 15 July 2007

Application Deadline (date of postmark): 15 July 2007



Residential Scholarships at the Künstlerhaus Schloß Balmoral

15 May 2007 is the starting date of the application period for Balmoral
Scholarships in Bad Ems. Seven residential scholarships will be awarded, six
of those to artists. In order to promote the dialogue between research and
art, this year, for the first time, one of the scholarships will be awarded
to a junior scholar of the humanities (preferably in the field of Art
Theory). Working in agreement and close cooperation with the Künstlerhaus
and the artists holding a scholarship, s/he will play an active part in the
organisation and the activities of the institution. Additionally, Balmoral
will award a project grant to allow a selected visual artist to realise a
project elsewhere. This will eventually be presented at Künstlerhaus Schloß
Balmoral.



The scholarships and the project grant run for six months each. The
scholarships are endowed with 1,200 Euros per month and include free
accommodation at the Künstlerhaus Schloß Balmoral.



Requirements for Entitlement

Candidates for a Balmoral Scholarship may include artists from the fields of
painting, sculpture, installation, drawing, graphic art, design,
photography, video, as well as new media, landscape art or nature art.
Applicants will be required to possess a degree in art and to have
continuously worked as artists for at least three years. Artists of all ages
and nationalities are invited submit their application. The art theory
scholarship will be awarded to a person no older than 35 years of age or a
person who graduated within the last five years. In order to enable artistic
dialogue and interdisciplinary collaboration, candidates are ideally
required to speak German, English and French.



Foreign Exchange Scholarships

The six-months scholarships in London and New York will be awarded
exclusively to artists from the Rhineland-Palatinate region. As part of an
exchange with the Chinese province of Fujian, twinned with the
Rhineland-Palatinate, the Künstlerhaus Schloß Balmoral offers, for the first
time, two scholarships of two months each for an exchange visit to China
(Xiamen and Fudzhou). These Foreign Exchange Scholarships are endowed with
500 Euros per month.



Since 2005, Balmoral has also been in charge of the

Scholarships awarded by the Rhineland-Palatinate:

-         two six-month scholarships for the Cité internationale, Paris

-         one five-month scholarship at Wiepersdorf

-         one three-month scholarship for the Centre d’art contemporain de
Saint-Léger, Pougues-les-Eaux, Burgundy



Candidates for these scholarships have to fulfil further requirements in
addition to those detailed above. See internet.



Allocation of Scholarships

Scholarships are allocated by an selection committee of experts who will pay
particular attention to the development potential of the applicant's
artistic / theoretical work. Once the scholarships have been awarded, the
members of the selection committee are made public in the press.
