Akademie Schloss Solitude

Akademie Schloss Solitude is a foundation under public law. According to its statutes, its task is to promote mainly younger, particularly gifted artists by means of residence fellowships, and by organizing public performances, readings, concerts, and exhibitions by its residents. Since 2002, with the art, science & business program, the Akademie has offered fellowships also to young talented individuals from the sciences, humanities, and business world. Akademie Schloss Solitude is subsidized by the State of Baden-Württemberg Lottery.

The program is inherent in the name »Akademie Schloss Solitude«: It combines the idea of an academy for scientific and artistic exchange with that of a retreat – which Schloss Solitude has always been. The Akademie, founded at Solitude in 1990, operates in the intermediary space between private and public; where art is reflected upon and produced but where it also finds a connection to the public. The Akademie places particular value on offering its guests another »quality« of time – one that is better than the fellows would experience in their daily lives.
