ARTISTS’ RESIDENCE IN THE BAVARIAN FOREST

SCHIESSLHAUS AiR is an artists’ residence with a publicly funded artist in residence program – a studio house for professional artists and at the same time a cultural venue – in the historic monument "Schießl-Haus" in Kollnburg, Bavarian Forest. The AiR project consists of an international Artist-in-Residence Program and a Public Education and Participation Program with exhibitions, lecture series, workshops, artist talks and open studios.

SCHIESSLHAUS AiR

In 2023, the artist in residence program SCHIESSLHAUS AiR takes place for the second time. The Bavarian Forest is a place for artistic inspiration, interaction and intervention.

NEWS

“Precisely because the Bavarian Forest is not artistically dominated and preformed, every new creation can become visible there - every research project and every cooperation is followed closely. Precisely because you can discuss socially relevant topics against an unbiased background, you see the bridges that can be built between ideas and people of diverse backgrounds.”

Peter Haimerl, Architect
