Staying as artist in residence
Artists are invited to the lithography workshop of the city of Eichstätt for two weeks during
which they will be working in the atelier.
This active period of creative work is followed by an exhibition at the lithography workshop
that lasts another two weeks.
As the lithography workshop of Eichstätt is centrally situated in the region where lithographic stones are mined, a trip to near-by Solnhofen is part of the program.
There will be a visit to a company still producing lithographic stones, a visit to a historic quarry and a quarry presently in use.
A visit to the Jura Museum in Eichstätt will provide insights into the geological conditions of limestone formation and shed light on local finds of paleontological stones.
A precondition of any invitation is that the artist invited is working independently as a lithographer. This should be a core aspect of her or his artistic work.
It is only in exceptional cases that a guest printer is additionally being invited.
Artists from every country of the world may be guests of this locality, situated in the region that is offering the world’s finest lithographic stones.
Every artist invited is expected to give in return prints of the works of art done at the atelier.
These will form part of the “Eichstätt Lithography Collection”.
The main emphasis is put on the professional quality and relevance of the art works.
