Participation fee
€ 860,– (reduced € 620,–)
On the Untersberg mountainside, a small community of workers developed around the industry focused on stone quarrying. The quarry is still active but is now driven by a few people, leaving space for other activities. The framework for community life remains, and at the same time offers ideal conditions for work that is dusty and noisy, as well as space to find calm in the simplicity of mountain life. We invite you to come for the three weeks to use this platform and the unique material and spatial possibilities it offers.
The exchange between material and place, place and individuals is explored, with the surroundings as a point of departure, inviting participants to engage with ancient materials in the mixing-pot of contemporary conversation.
In this course, participants and the teaching artists live and work for three weeks directly on site. In the atmosphere of a symposium, exchange of ideas and individual work progress are valued equally. We will discuss emerging questions on context, shape, surface, forms of language, expression and intention.
Participants can learn or refine technical skills in the treatment of stone, use and learn basic steel treatment such as cutting and welding, or work site-specifically in other media.
Helping each other, discussing ideas, perhaps developing a collective practice or working individually, as well as preparing food and maintaining everyday life in the quarry – these are common ground. There will be core working hours which can be freely adjusted depending on the project.
Students in this course generally live and work in the former workers' houses on site. Everyday life in the quarry (cooking, cleaning, etc.) is organised by the students themselves. From Saturday evening, 30 July, simple dormitory accommodation is available in the quarry grounds for € 7.- per night. An invoice will be issued in advance.

Cäcilia Brown, born in Sens (FR) in 1983, focuses with her sculptures on questions concerning the social and public sphere and its immanent hierarchies, combining them with sculptural questions of weight, volume, texture and material. Her latest works use clay from recent digging for a new underground in Vienna, roof beams and other material from demolished buildings.

Anna Hofbauer works in the media of sculpture and photography, often based on structures borrowed from narrative forms such as novels, diaries, myths, essays or screenplays. She has participated in exhibitions and sculpture workshops in Europe and Asia and performs slideshow presentations that link depictions of sculpture and landscape with historic and ongoing narrations of sculpture and society. She is a co-founder of the non-commercial exhibition space BLACKBRIDGE OFF 空间, Beijing, where she curated group shows and film programmes from 2010 until 2015.

Mikkel Holm Torp, born in Frederiksberg (DK) in 1987, lives and works in Copenhagen and Carrara (IT). He works with sculpture, ceramics and installations. His works are developed from knowledge in stone masonry and investigations of mineral materials. He explores how art forms correspond with geology, landscape and archaeology. His latest works question how stones are valuable elements, not only as minerals, but also as metaphors for navigating in historical landscapes, cultural memory and iconology.
