Eastern Europe Scholarship for Image Science and MediaArtHistories

The Department for Image Science will award scholarships for the Master of
Arts courses MediaArtHistories and Image Science which take place at
Danube University Krems and accommodate full-time employment.
The scholarships provide artists and scientists from Eastern Europe with
the possibility to join this special program.

Because of the EU expansion, the media art scene of Eastern Europe is
getting closer to the center of Europe and paving its way into the visual
field of international critics and collectors.
Art and culture are gaining more importance for tourism and as an economic
factor. Furthermore, countries like Hungary, Estonia and Bulgaria are
making first steps to document treasures of art and culture in a digital
way in order to offer access to their national heritage for a wide
audience. New media allow the integration and presentation of historic
treasures spanning to contemporary art installations and show exemplary
ways of international co-operation in order to open new insights for
scholars.

=> Sponsorship from the Department for Image Science
With the scholarship offering 50% of the tuition fee, artists and
scientists from the new European member states will get easier access to
knowledge and are offered the opportunity to develop and discuss
innovative projects and initiatives in the field of art and culture and to
work towards their realization assisted by some of the most renowned
experts in the field.
The Department for Image Science considers these scholarships, besides the
support, as a possibility to intensify the quality of the study through
the formation of a transnational and interdisciplinary network.

=> Eastern Europe Scholarship for MediaArtHistories
The scholarship should go to artists and researchers from the eastern
countries working in the field of conservation, documentation and
presentation of media arts or persons interested in doing research in this
field.

=> Transdisciplinary study with international background:
MediaArtHistories, MA
The unique program MediaArtHistories, MA addresses artists, employees of
museums, exhibitions personnel, gallerists, art historians, media
scientists or people interested in the field and provides the key
developments of recent and contemporary art.

Supported by online databases and other high end teaching equipment the
post-graduate university course introduces students to the various forms
of media art - from computer animation, net art, interactive, Telematic
and Genetic art spanning over CAVE-installations and Augmented Reality to
the latest reflections of artists in the area of Nano Art - which are
being presented and discussed by international experts. Specialists like
Lev Manovich and Erkki Huthamo are among the famous lecturers. Students
come from USA, Austria, Hungary and Switzerland. Because of the modular
structure of the course, it is possible to enroll several times a year.
