about the project
Artist in Residence Reisenberg
The new programme for artists is organised by I-am-Escape. The annual residency is dedicated to bring together contemporary art and the local community on its grounds.
The invitation is to connect with our ecosystem, experiencing nature, relaxation and concentration and about creating artworks that respond to this specific region. As part of the program we promote engagement with members of the community, to bring about a dialogue around local traditions, forest & nature as well as urban and rural ways of living. The artworks produced during the residency are funded privately and the resulting exhibitions are open to the public for free.
The first exhibition project of the Artist Residency Reisenberg opens on 30th of August 2024 with Fabian Knecht’s installation "Isolation" (Felswand) 2024.

the location
I am Escape
A 700 000m2 Life Work Retreat in the heart of Europe. Imagine a place surrounded by endless forests and meadows that invites you to be completely in the here and now. A place where traditional countryside living and modern urban life not only coexist but also learn from and inspire each other. Precisely this is what Kathrin and Bernhard Schluga have created in the mountains of St. Salvator in Austria. A secluded retreat surrounded by nature, embedded in the idyllic Carinthian cultural landscape.
