The 14th SCHLOSSMEDIALE – international festival of early music, new music and audiovisual Art will take place from June 17 – 26, 2027 at Werdenberg castle in the canton of St.Gallen in Switzerland. A grant for a five-week residency will give three individually active artists the opportunity to develop new art at a location that is steeped in history, and to display, install or perform their work in the unique spaces of the castle in creative and open engagement with it. The works created will be shown in the castle during the Schlossmediale Festival. We are looking forward to welcoming artists who are ready to find inspiration for their work in the castle and its surroundings. Each year a motto is chosen that defines the programme of the ten-day festival and is also the basis for a creative response by the artists in residence. Important note: Sound installations without a visual dimension will not be taken into account.

Three qualified artists – solo artists, no duos or groups – with professional experience in different fields who represent the following artistic disciplines: sound art, sound studies, audiovisual art, experimental instrument building, visual art, installations, sculpture, land art, performance

Grant:  CHF 4.000.– ; Expenses for travel, transport and meals: CHF 1.000.– Material costs:
up to CHF 1.000.–
