funding for germany-based artists exhibiting internationally

Supporting Contemporary Artists Abroad

ifa understands contemporary art as an important medium for intercultural dialogue.

The exhibition funding programme supports German artists and artists who have resided in Germany for a minimum of five years to exhibit their work internationally in non-commercial museums, galleries and institutions.

Twice a year, they have the opportunity to apply for a specific exhibition project abroad.

Grants for travel and accommodation expenses, art transport and rental expenses for technical equipment incurred for the realization of the exhibition can be covered within the framework of the funding program, provided that an application is submitted within the submission deadlines and a positive decision is made.

For applications to biennials or group exhibitions, an overall application of all German and German-based artists is recommended.

There are two deadlines in 2024:

• 31 January 2024 for projects from June 2024
• 15 August 2024 for projects from January 2025.
