Dear friends of Kunstraum Niederoesterreich!
What do Roberta Lima, Julischka Stengele and Jakob Lena Knebl have in common? That's right, they are all laureates of the H13 Lower Austria Prize for Performance! Last year, the visual artist and dancer Sara Lanner joined the ranks of the winners with her project MINE. Who will it be this year? The call for submissions is now open! Artists who have been living and working in Austria for at least two years can submit their performance ideas until 15 April 2022. We are looking forward to many interesting proposals!
The H13 Lower Austria Prize for Performance will be awarded by Kunstraum Niederoesterreich for the 16th time in 2022. It is the only prize awarded in Austria for performance art as a medium of visual art. The aim is to bring the diversity of performative works by artists into focus and to make them accessible to the interested public. In addition to prize money of € 5.000,- for the winner of the competition, the chosen performance will be premiered on Th, 01 09 2022 at Kunstraum Niederoesterreich. The realisation of the performance will be additionally supported with € 2.000,-. The spatial conditions of Kunstraum Niederoesterreich should therefore also be taken into consideration in the concepts submitted.
Further information on the call for proposals and the awarding process can be found here. Submission is only possible online.
See you at Kunstraum!
Best wishes,
the team of Kunstraum Niederoesterreich
