Residents are in dialogue with one another and with advisors (internationally active artists, art critics, exhibition organisers and others). Contacts between resident artists and advisors mainly take the form of individual studio visits at the resident artist's invitation.
The composition of the group of advisors represents great diversity as regards the concept of art, generation, nationality and the advisors’ position in the art world. Discussions, seminars, excursions and workshops, initiated by both residents and advisors, are held on current shared themes arising from the residents’ own work or areas that fascinate them beyond this. Guest advisors are also regularly invited.
