esa_bepicolombo_opencallUnder the aegis of the European Digital Art and Science Network, Ars Electronica cordially invites artists to take part in a competition for a residency at the European Space Agency (ESA) and at the Ars Electronica Futurelab. This residency offers artists an extraordinary opportunity to experience the landing of the Rosetta space probe and the ExoMars Mission live on site at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in Noordwijk, The Netherlands.

This visit to the ESA facility will be followed by a one-month stay at the Ars Electronica Futurelab, where the artist-in-residence can bring his/her project to fruition.

The deadline of this open call for applications is June 6, 2016 at midnight. Entries may be submitted online at www.aec.at/artandscience. The recipient of the residency will be selected by a jury made up of representatives of the ESA, Ars Electronica Linz and the European Digital Art and Science Network’s member institutions.
