Stiftung Starke Gemeinnützige Kunststiftung supports emerging artists across genres, with a strong emphasis on giving them time, space, and visibility rather than traditional project grants. Its core offer is a residency model that combines subsidized living and studio space, exhibition opportunities at Löwenpalais, and access to national and international contacts. The foundation appears especially oriented toward helping young artists build careers and networks in Berlin while remaining open to applicants from abroad.
Rolling, invite-like residency support rather than competitive cash grants; provides 3–12 month residencies with accommodation, studio access, exhibition space, and a stipend, with applicants paying an energy contribution.
Apply directly for the Artist in Residence program; there is no fixed deadline, so applications can be submitted year-round. Emphasize your artistic practice, need for studio/living space, and how the residency would benefit your work, and note that the program accepts international applicants.
