Short residencies in Berlin and New York City are the collective core of a graduate program in transdisciplinary art with one-on-one advisement during the academic year. The program is based on the assumption that each student (and not any “educator”) is the expert on where artistic practice might lead. The program is designed to provide a protected space for experimentation and the free exchange of ideas in intensive multi-perspective settings. The program allows students to maintain their lives while they study and further their creative practice. Program — Institut für Sozialwissenschaften.
