The INHABIT Artist-in-Residence Program of the Max Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics invites performing artists and musicians to collaborate with our team of scientists and researchers. The integration of artistic thinking and knowledge as reflective practices in their own right is an important dimension of the institute’s mission. INHABIT invites artists to spend three months (September – December 2025, March – June 2026, September – December 2026) creating new work, or further developing an existing project, in a scientific research environment. Openness to the mission of the institute and interest and readiness to work together with individual researchers or research groups are naturally preconditions. Work developed during the residency will be presented in cooperation with various local arts institutions.

Artists from the performing arts and music who are interested in interdisciplinary collaboration between the artistic and scientific fields, who are active in contemporary culture and respond to the institute with innovative and challenging ideas can apply.

During the residency, the institute will provide space, resources, and facilities for productive experimentation, dialogue, and collaboration. The artist will receive a fee of 8.000 Euro alongside an individual production budget, coverage of travel expenses to and from Frankfurt and a fee of 2000 € towards accommodation.
