Announcement of the results of the Open call 'Your Addiction is the Message'

We are honoured to announce the results of the international open call Your Addiction is the Message for residencies and participation in the exhibition series in 2024. To our great delight, the call was exceptionally well received – we received a total of 161 applications for the residency and 95 for the exhibition (with some overlapping applications, as some applied to both calls). Moreover, their quality was generally very high, which is why we ultimately decided to double the number of residencies undertaken under the call from the originally announced three to the final six. The large number of applications we received also had an impact on our ability to get the work done on time - we therefore apologise to everyone for the several days delay in announcing the results, we hope we didn't cause you too much unnecessary stress!
