Residency programmes

Goethe-Institut collaborated with the association KIKK, which promotes digital and creative cultures at the crossroads between art, science, technology and society, as well as its Creative Hub: Protolab & Medialab TRAKK, to launch an Arts & Sciences residency program around the theme ECOLOGICAL FUTURES, organized in partnership with the CCN/Namur Cultural Center.

As part of the project Afterlives of Objects the Goethe-Institut and the Brusseler project space Enough Room for Space invited the Congolese artist Pamela Tulizo to Brussels. For four weeks, the artist worked on her photographic project, which renegotiates the iconography of the African woman throughout history by reinventing her representation.

In 2021, we invited Leipzig-based artist Anna Haifisch to Brussels. For four weeks, she worked on her ongoing projects at the cultural centre ‘LaVallée’ in Molenbeek. Aside from studios and workshops, the centre also houses exhibition spaces.

Berlin-based comic artist Lasse Wandschneider worked on a new project for four weeks and exhibited it at the international comic festival Grafixx in Antwerp from 30 November to 2 December 2018.

For this residency, the German comic artist Sophia Martineck moved her workplace from Berlin to the Belgian capital at the beginning of November 2017.
