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 K&uuml;nstlerhaus Schlo&szlig; 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
K&uuml;nstlerhaus 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 K&uuml;nstlerhaus Schlo&szlig; 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 K&uuml;nstlerhaus Schlo&szlig; 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 K&uuml;nstlerhaus Schlo&szlig; 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 Cit&eacute; internationale, Paris
- one five-month scholarship at Wiepersdorf
- one three-month scholarship for the Centre d’art contemporain de
Saint-L&eacute;ger, 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.
