How did the art system come about? Who decides what is shown? What is "vitamin B" and how do I make small talk at openings? In four fullday sessions, we will focus on the so-called art system and its exhibition system. After a joint orientation, we will look at funding opportunities, application documents, self-presentation and mediation. Current issues relating to sustainability and accessibility will also be included. An additional date, which will be arranged during the course, is planned for an exchange with scholarship holders and graduates who will report on their CVs and experiences. In addition to regular attendance, active participation is required for successful participation. We will work together on the basis of current open calls for applications. Open to students from all fields of study. The seminar will be held in German, alternative dates in English may be discussed individually in advance.
