Open Call For Residencies RedSapata Kunst-, Kultur- und Tanzinitiative 2026

RedSapata Kunst-, Kultur- und Tanzinitiative are looking for innovative, multidisciplinary projects that explore themes of artificial intelligence, though we remain open to other themes related to nature, society, politics, and the body.

When: starting from 2026

Deadline for applications: 29th June 2025

Artists of all disciplines, especially those in the field of dance, are encouraged to apply. Multidisciplinary projects that integrate the body as a medium are also welcome. The selected artists will benefit from a supportive working environment, including studio space and optional accommodations, to develop their artistic vision. Below are the key details and focus areas for this residency opportunity:

Focus Areas

1. General Focus on Artistic Expression
We welcome a wide range of artistic proposals, focusing on projects that creatively engage with the contemporary world. Whether your work touches on societal dynamics, nature, or political discourse, we encourage applications from artists who challenge norms and present fresh perspectives.

2. AI Dances
We are excited to support projects that explore the creative and cultural implications of artificial intelligence through movement and performance. We invite artists to consider how AI can be both a tool and a subject in dance – examining questions of embodiment, agency, authorship, and human-machine collaboration. These works should investigate the evolving relationship between technology and expression, and reflect on how AI shapes our understanding of creativity, identity, and the future of artistic practice.
