ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE PROGRAM
AIR
Artists of various disciplines (theater, performing arts, dance, media art, music, and writing), groups, collectives, and individual artists and cultural workers from all sectors worldwide are invited to apply. We support
a wide diversity in nationality, age, gender, or artistic discipline among our candidates. Applications are open to individuals or teams.
The concept of the residency is to provide an opportunity for international exchange in a creative environment. It aims to foster creativity through direct contact with professionals from DAH Theater and the local community, the artistic public, local
artists, cultural institutions, curators, and art historians, and to deepen mutual understanding and cultural exchange among resident creators.
Our goal is to support artists by providing them with the time and space where they can develop their work, reflect, and exchange their ideas, visions, and working methods.
We also want to provide artists with the opportunity to become part of networks that make up the contemporary art scene locally and internationally.
The residency can be used for project development, concept exploration, investigating the artistic and technical feasibility of a particular idea, post-production of an audiovisual work, rehearsals, or testing a work in full production.
CONDITIONS
The residency program supports project development in a focused environment for one week to one month in our space.

When I was offered to work with DAH Theater, and after spending three summers at their school, I found myself again among artists who are dedicated, experienced, and politically aware. These three qualities have become central to me
since my first entry into their theater in 2009, and are probably the reason why I feel at home every time I come. The great passion, love, and knowledge associated with the work of this group, as well as the spheres of conversation in which I constantly
find myself: European politics, engagement, and a great need for art, have created a need not only to spend more time in their environment but also to exchange my work with people who have inspired me so much.
