About stadt.raum.experimente
This year, the Kunstkommission (Art Commission) of the City of Düsseldorf is launching a new format that focuses on promoting contemporary art in the public space. With stadt.raum.experimente, local as well as internationally active artists are called upon to develop experimental and temporary concepts for the urban space of Düsseldorf. Whether installation, performance or participation: stadt.raum.experimente is open to unusual forms and experimental ideas.

Artistic projects in public space are funded that reflect the state and processes of change in the city and actively help shape future developments, for example with regard to sustainable aspects. Socially relevant topics can be taken up in the projects.

Up to 120,000 EUR are available annually. Each project is funded with a maximum of 60,000 EUR. Additional funds from third parties are possible.

Applications are possible at any time!

Closing date for entries for the year 2023 is October 15, 2022.

About the Kunstkommission Düsseldorf
Art in architecture resp. public art is formative, creates distinctive places, promotes identification in neighbourhoods and is an essential component of modern urban culture and urban development.

For this reason, the Kunstkommission Düsseldorf in Northrhine-Westphalia, Germany was founded 2018. Since then, a panel of experts consisting of artists, art scholars, architects, urban planners and politicians has been advising the local political bodies on possible projects, artistic formats, locations of building projects, the type of selection process, the artists to be invited and finally the artistic ideas to be realised. The aim is to enable a manifold of artistic expressions in public space, often in connection with new building projects. In addition, the Kunstkommission initiates its own projects and formats in order to sharpen the view of art in public space and to strengthen the city's profile. The members of the Kunstkommission, which is supported in its work by an own agency, are elected every three years.
