Open Studio Days 2024
9 & 10 NOV 2024, 1–6 p.m.
We invite artists working in Vienna to upload their submissions for the participation in the Open Studio Days as part of VIENNA ART WEEK by 30th April 2024. From all submissions, participating artists will be selected to open their studios and welcome visitors on the two days of the Open Studio Days – Saturday, 9th November and Sunday, 10th November 2024 between 1pm and 6pm.
Priority will be given to those who did not participate in the Open Studio Days last year.
This year’s expert jury – consisting of Laura Amann (Curator Kunsthalle Wien), Julia Hartmann (Associate Curator VIENNA ART WEEK), Soli Kiani (Artist), Günther Oberhollenzer (Artistic Director Künstlerhaus Vereinigung) and Robert Punkenhofer (Artistic Director VIENNA ART WEEK) – will select artists from all the submissions to participate in the Open Studio Days.
Submissions are possible from now until 30 April 2024. All artists will be informed by the end of May whether they have been selected to participate in the Open Studio Days.
Requirements
- Submitting artists must have a studio/working space in Vienna at the time of the Open Studio Days in November 2024.
- The artists selected by the jury to participate in the Open Studio Days will keep their studios open to the public on Saturday, 9th November and Sunday, 10th November from 1pm to 6pm.
Additional program
- Time to explore – This year, we would like to invite and encourage artists again to offer their own events and activities for visitors as part of the Open Studio Days – and therefore invite them to explore their artistic practices more in depth. The format is entirely up to you: from workshops to performances, anything is possible! However, participation should remain free of charge and should not hold up the parallel, further course of the Open Studio Days. The submission of an event is optional.
- Open Studio Days District Tours – Guided walking tours in the various districts will take visitors to different studios of the Open Studio Days. The VIENNA ART WEEK tries to include as many of the participating artists’ studios as possible in one of the District Tours. However, we ask for your understanding if it should not be possible for individual studios.
- Barrier-free Shuttle Tours – Shuttle tours lead visitors through selected wheelchair-accessible studios in the various districts. We therefore ask for correct information on accessibility in the submission.
- Social Media & Press – To introduce the participating artists on our social media channels in the months leading up to the Open Studio Days and to get to know them better, we will again offer various formats from which artists can choose. Additionally, VIENNA ART WEEK will promote the Open Studio Days and its participants on their website, press relations and printed matter.
Attention
- The details provided in the application will be used for communication, please take time to ensure that all information is correct and complete. If moving, please submit with the studio address that will exist in November 2024.
