From November 25-26, 2010, a symposium in honour of Prof. Dr. Robert Picht (†2008) takes place at Academie Schloss Solitude in the context of the program "art, science & business".

art.homes is an art project which – under the motto of friendship – aims at promoting young artists from Munich and Istanbul. Ten artists from Munich and ten from Istanbul will meet and be paired up to share and make use of 10 apartments in Istanbul (2010) and in Munich (2011).

A cross-disciplinary platform that will investigate the connections between political and cultural symbols and propaganda and its impact on the urban environment, the interference between personal narratives and imported ideologies and cultural discourses in relation to the public sphere.

The REX Project supplements studio residencies for artists with a phase of intercultural exchange and public presentation. A collaborative initiative of the art centers WIELS in Brussels, HALLE 14 in Leipzig, and MAUMAUS in Lisbon, in association with the Allianz Cultural Foundation.

The workshop from April 2nd till April 10th, 2008 offered young curators cross-border opinion and experience exchange, and the possibility to arrange actively the social program of the bb5. 14 curators from 14 countries participated.

Through various artistic encounters and artist-in-residence programs, the basis for transnational networks should be firmly established and the isolation of creative artists in Eastern Europe overcome.
