AIR-M Villa Waldberta

Amanda Carneiro (São Paulo, 1985) 2022

Villa Waldberta in Feldafing—perched high above Lake Starnberg with a view of the lake and the Alps (www.artistinresidence-munich.de)—offers five spacious apartments for visiting artists from around the world.

The salons on the ground floor are ideal for activities with the other fellowship recipients and are regularly used for events. Villa Waldberta includes a large park, the so-called “Chauffeurshäusl” with an additional studio apartment for the summer months, and the 80 m² Palmenhaus, which is used year-round as a studio and exhibition space, as well as for other types of events.

The residency offers the opportunity to engage with the Munich cultural scene during the stay. An Open Studio event is organized at the end of the residency session at Villa Waldberta. This is an opportunity for the residents to present their ongoing research to art professionals and the public and to create a direct connection with audiences. Villa Waldberta is not barrier-free.
