OPEN CALL: minciospace_ residency
minciospace_ is offering a residency and invites artists who are planning a stay in Vienna or who already live in Vienna and the surrounding area to apply for our RESIDENCY OPEN CALL focusing on music/sound art.
minciospace_ is a place for music, art development and collective exchange about a livable future for all, as well as a place aiming to explore the ways in which art can inspire social progress.
Rehearsals, live sessions, expert talks, workshops and creative dialogue between musicians and people from other areas of society take place in over 750 sq m of space.
From 1 October to 9 November 2025, minciospace_ will make its premises available for five days of residency to develop an artistic project, make creative use of the various spaces on site and expand one's own network. Part of the residency is the presentation of the developed piece/project at our Für/Sorge_ Showing #3 on 11 November 2025. The five residency days can be chosen freely within the residency period.
The residency can be structured freely: residents work, develop and rehearse autonomously in the rooms provided; the infrastructure of minciospace_ (rehearsal rooms, kitchen, WiFi, etc.) is available to residents at any time as required.
Annual theme: Für/Sorge (“care”)
“Für/Sorge” is about caring for ourselves, for others, and for the world we share while unlearning patriarchal patterns and reshaping existing structures. You can find more thoughts on the annual theme HERE.
As part of the OPEN CALL, we invite you to explore and shape your project around the diverse dimensions of the topic.
