Croatia | WHW Akademija 2023 international study programme
The curatorial collective What, How & for Whom (WHW) is calling for applications to participate in the 5th Zagreb-based WHW Akademija, an experimental, interdisciplinary, tuition-free art study programme for emerging artists, taking place online and in Zagreb from March to November 2023.
The programme combines live and digital sessions, starting online in March and April and intensifying with a physical summer school that will take place in Zagreb (16–23 May 2023). The programme then continues online until the end of October 2023, when the final meeting of participants will take place in Zagreb.
Focused on eco-social and somatic practices, artistic ecologies, care, collectivity, and degrowth, the 2023 programme explores methodologies developed by artists and cultural workers to engage with their environments, be that artistic, social, digital, or ecological.
The 2023 programme will be organised in collaboration between WHW (Zagreb), Rijksakademie (Amsterdam) and Neue Nachbarschaft // Moabit (Berlin).

It is open to individuals seeking to deepen their formal, theoretical, and critical skills in art and who are at the beginning of developing an independent artistic practice.
