Event History
GlogauAIR is a non-profit art space and residency created in 2006 by Chema Alvargonzalez and nowadays supported by Memoria Artística Chema Alvargonzalez, in Kreuzberg, Berlin.The residency is located in a historic, modernist-style building that was originally designed to be a school. The building was one of the first projects erected by architect Ludwig Hoffmann in 1896, during his time as the Building Advisor of Berlin. The on-line program is for artists who aren’t able to travel and is more flexible to allow artists to continue to live and work in their existing setting while still experiencing international exchange and professional support. The program includes curatorial support and mentoring sessions, regular group meetings, talks by experts and workshops. Applications for the On-line Program are accepted on a rolling basis; apply early to guarantee your spot in the program. Final deadline for consideration for the program starting October 2025 is September 29th, 2025.
GlogauAIR is a space for all types of artist. We welcome applications form all around the world and various backgrounds and artistic disciplines. The applications are reviewed by GlogauAIR’s team which is comprised of local and international art professionals.
The program includes curatorial support, regular group meetings, talks by experts and workshops. The artists are asked to work form their homes or personal studios, using material they can source.
