Scholarship Follow Fluxus
The aim of the "Follow Fluxus - Fluxus and the Consequences" scholarship, which has been awarded by the state capital of Wiesbaden and the Nassauischer Kunstverein since 2008, is to support international young artists who take up the ideas of the Fluxus art movement in their work and keep them alive.
The foundation of the scholarship goes back to the "Fluxus Festival of New Music", which took place in Wiesbaden in 1962. This Fluxus event gave the new art movement its first broad echo.
The working scholarship is endowed with 10,000 euros and is awarded for three months from June to August. During this time, the scholarship holders are provided with living and studio space at the Nassauischer Kunstverein. Following the work scholarship, an exhibition of the scholarship holders will be held at the NKV from September to the end of May of the following year, accompanied by a publication.
For the duration of the scholarship, the scholarship holders should spend most of their time in Wiesbaden. National and international artists between the ages of 18 and 47 from the field of fine arts can be nominated. The scholarship is open to all artistic media, including performative approaches.
