About the Akademie Schloss Solitude Web Residency The Akademie Schloss Solitude Web Residency is an international online residency program that supports artists working with digital technologies and web-based artistic practices. Since its launch in 2016, the program has provided a platform for artists to develop projects specifically designed for the internet while encouraging critical engagement with digital culture, technology, and society. Rather than adapting existing work for online presentation, the residency supports projects conceived for the web as a creative and public space. Selected residents receive dedicated online infrastructure, technical support, and curatorial guidance while developing new work during the four-week residency. Web Residencies Call No. 22, “Ignore All Previous Instructions,” is curated by !Mediengruppe Bitnik and marks the program’s tenth anniversary. This edition examines the growing influence of digital platforms, surveillance technologies, artificial intelligence, and algorithmic systems. The curatorial framework encourages artists to develop projects that question dominant technological structures, explore alternative forms of communication, and experiment with methods that interrupt or reimagine existing digital systems. The organizers welcome proposals from across artistic disciplines, provided they engage meaningfully with web-based practice and the themes of the call. What Is Offered - €1,200 grant - Four-week online residency - Dedicated microsite for project development and publication - Support from a web designer or UX designer - Programmer support for project implementation - Individual meetings with the curators - Group sessions with fellow Web Residents and Solitude fellows - Online presentation of the completed project - Potential participation in future offline or hybrid public programming Who Should Apply This opportunity is intended for artists whose practice engages with digital technologies, internet culture, networked communication, or web-based artistic production. The call welcomes artists from the international digital scene alongside practitioners from any discipline who use the web as an artistic medium or research environment. Individuals, collectives, associations, and initiatives are eligible to apply. Applicants should propose projects that respond directly to the curatorial framework while demonstrating a clear understanding of how the work will function within an online environment. Since each selected project receives a dedicated microsite and technical support, proposals should be designed for web presentation rather than simply documenting work created elsewhere. Applicants must also be available online throughout the four-week residency. Akademie Schloss Solitude Web Residency Timeline Application Opens: 7 July 2026 Application Deadline: 7 August 2026, 6:00 PM CET Optional Online Coding Workshop: 17 September 2026 Residency Period: 22 September to 22 October 2026 Project Launch: October or November 2026 Notification: Applicants are expected to be informed beginning in September 2026. Why The Akademie Schloss Solitude Web Residency Matters The Akademie Schloss Solitude Web Residency offers artists an opportunity to develop work specifically for an online environment while working within a clearly defined curatorial framework. The combination of financial support, technical assistance, and dedicated web infrastructure makes the residency particularly valuable for artists whose practice relies on digital platforms, experimental media, or networked participation. Rather than emphasizing production at a physical site, the program focuses on developing projects that exist on the web and engage audiences through digital technologies. The 2026 call is especially relevant for artists investigating artificial intelligence, platform capitalism, surveillance, algorithmic systems, online communication, and internet culture. Its emphasis on experimentation encourages applicants to propose projects that critically examine contemporary technological systems while exploring new artistic methods for working online. For artists interested in digital practice, media art, internet art, performance in virtual spaces, or interdisciplinary research, the residency provides a well-established international platform with technical and curatorial support.

Last minute spots August and September 16-30: Peak Summer on Vancouver Island Deadline: 07 Aug 2026 Country: Canada Dear Artist, Two last-minute residency spots have just opened up for the most extraordinary stretch of the Vancouver Island calendar—August 16 to 30 and September 16 to 30. If you’ve been waiting for the right window for an island summer, this is it. Why this season, why here. Summers on Vancouver Island are, quietly, one of the best-kept secrets in North America—long sun-soaked days, cool evenings, that particular west-coast light painters and photographers chase for years, and almost no bugs. The residency sits in the small town of Lake Cowichan, ringed by mountains and built around a lake and river that run clean and lear right through it, with hiking trails leaving from town and a lake warm enough to swim in by mid-June. From this calm home base, the rest of the island opens up: old-growth rainforest, Pacific beaches and the tide pools at Botanical Beach to the west, waterfalls and ridgelines to the north, and Victoria and Salt Spring Island within easy day-trip reach. This residency invites you to step into all of it—and into your practice—at the same time. Your stay includes a cozy home base equipped with both traditional and digital studio spaces, with the serene Lake Cowichan and its lush surroundings as your canvas. “Something is healing about this island.” “Lake Cowichan is such a quiet and friendly town, perfectly positioned to explore the island’s natural beauty.” “I feel like I am going home changed.” Find out more: About the residency What is the residency like: Life at the residency For application details visit: Apply For an ideas of places to explore visit: Around the residency Duration of residency Two-week residency Accommodation The residency accommodates 3 to 5 artists in private bedrooms, with shared spaces that include two kitchens, two bathrooms, laundry facilities, a common area, individual and shared studio spaces for both digital and traditional work, outdoor seating and studio areas, as well as direct access to nature trails, rivers, and lakes.

Wave Hill

Sunroom Project Space Located in the Riverdale section of the Bronx, Wave Hill is a 28-acre public garden and cultural center overlooking the Hudson River and Palisades with the mission to explore human connections to the natural world through programs in horticulture, education and the arts. Contemporary art programs are presented in Glyndor Gallery, Wave Hill House, and across the Wave Hill grounds. The organization’s art-incubator programs—the Sunroom Project Space and Winter Workspace Residency—support emerging and mid-career artists with unique opportunities to conduct research and develop works at the intersection of nature, culture and place. The Sunroom Project Space offers artists in the New York City area who are in the early stages of their careers—regardless of age—a chance to develop and showcase a site-specific, solo project in the Sunroom or Sun Porch at Glyndor Gallery. Wave Hill invites proposals that thoughtfully respond to and engage with the site of Wave Hill—its plant collections, history, design, and architecture—with a focus on the interconnected relationships between nature, culture, and the Bronx. For the 2027 season, Wave Hill is especially interested in projects that recognize ancestral wisdom in relation to our connection with the earth and soil. Proposals may explore practices, beliefs, and values passed down through generations, particularly those that foster harmonious relationships with our ecosystems—for example, regenerative farming and agricultural practices, and the care of soil, water, and plant life. We also welcome projects that engage in the history of earth or land art—including concepts, materials, sites, and relationships to place—that intersect with sustainable practices and ancestral wisdom.
