Today, the "Kleine Stadt
Farm – Verein zur Förderung des Gemeinwohls" is an association of about 20 ecological and social organizations and cultural
workers, in which about 500 people are participating. The community farm is jointly managed, played on and cultivated – with
great commitment on a voluntary basis. The offer and the previous activities are designed and implemented on a low-threshold
level.
Artist-in-ResidenceThe Salettl Residency Program will take place for the second
time in 2023 and aims to offer artists the opportunity to enter into direct dialogue with the community of the Kleine Stadt
Farm and the surrounding nature in order to develop a project on site. Both during and towards the end of the residency, there
is the opportunity to present the artistic process and results and to engage in exchange with the local people.
The program is aimed at professional artists whose work demonstrates an interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary approach
and addresses issues of social and environmental sustainability. The thematic focus of the residency is to tie in with "Utopia"
- the annual theme of cultural activities in the district of Vienna-Donaustadt. We invite the artist to work on this main
topic from different perspectives and to realize it artistically.
The costs for travel, materials and meals have
to be paid by the artists themselves.
The application is open to all interested artists regardless of age, gender,
origin, sexual orientation or religious affiliation. Families are explicitly invited to apply. Children are welcome at the
Kleine Stadt Farm.
