Arte Utile (AU) Residence

raum AU is a physical and mental entity that as a potential public institution presents an appropriate addition to any urban environment – to coordinate the cities non-governmental production and to support active citizenship. Within the Arte Utile residency we try to activate the cultural heritage of Arte Utile by offering it to be discussed, researched, analysed and debated. Young theoreticians and artists are welcome to enter the artists archives. The AU residency can be a simple residency, where young artists can experiment their own AU arguments, but can be extended to a proper study of an artists opus and with that materials, that usually are left open, undone and never executed. Young, curious and open artists of every corner of the world are welcome to study the ideas of Arte Utile and to work in our social environment, a tiny city next to the Austrian border.
