Jahrgang 2021
© Daniel Sadrowski
For the 2020/2021 edition, the focus will be on artists whose work deals in the broadest sense with 'climate' and 'sleep', the thematic brackets of the Ruhr Ding editions 2021 and 2022.
The residencies, which generally last three or twelve months, are initially awarded independently of specific project proposals and enable artists to familiarise themselves with the region, incorporate this experience into their existing work or develop new ideas from it.
For the first time in 2021, the Haus der Geschichte des Ruhrgebiets in Bochum and the Halfmannshof in Gelsenkirchen have opened their doors to artists who want to use the specific digital or content-related research opportunities for their work on site. Since the start of the programme, there have been collaborations with the KunstVereineRuhr, an association of various art associations and artists' houses in the region, as well as the Ringlokschuppen Ruhr and the Makroscope - Centre for Art and Technology in Mülheim an der Ruhr.
