About the [MASTERCLASS] scholarship

The [MASTERCLASS] scholarship enables up to seven young people between the ages of 15 and 19 to become intensively acquainted with current art trends and the programme of the ZKM | Karlsruhe. In exchange with like-minded people and professional artists, the young talents learn how to work with new media in workshops lasting several days and receive comprehensive further training in the areas of work conception, video and sound art, live coding and analogue photography.

The aim of the scholarship is to design and present a joint analogue, hybrid or digital exhibition. Artists and curators act as mentors, advising and supporting the scholarship holders.

The [MASTERCLASS] scholarship is funded by the Fördergesellschaft ZKM / HfG e.V. and the Gunther Schroff Foundation.
