Goethe Institute Villa Kamogawa

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Goethe-Institut Villa Kamogawa ( Japanese ゲ ー テ ・ イ ン ス テ ィ ト ゥ ー ト ・ ヴ ィ ラ 鴨 川 Gēte Insutitūto Vira Kamogawa ) is a German cultural institution in Kyoto , Japan . It is named after the Kamo River of the same name and is currently managed by Markus Wernhard .

overview

The Villa Kamogawa is run by the German Goethe-Institut and funded from the Federal Foreign Office's budget . It offers artists from Germany the opportunity to live and work in Japan as part of a three-month scholarship. The scholarships are awarded by a jury to applicants from the fields of architecture, visual arts, performing arts, design, literature, music, film, and cultural theory and criticism. The scholarship includes a travel allowance, free accommodation, a Japanese course and a monthly allowance.

The building of the Villa Kamogawa, built in 1983, is located between the Imperial Palace and Kyoto University and is the property of the Federal Republic of Germany. Between 2010 and 2011, the former Goethe-Institut Kyoto was converted into an artist residence. The opening under the new name “Goethe-Institut Villa Kamogawa” took place on October 26, 2011 on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of German-Japanese relations in the presence of the then Federal President Christian Wulff .

Similar institutions are for example the German Academy Rome Villa Massimo , the Villa Aurora in Los Angeles or the much older French institution Villa Medici in Rome. The French artist residence Villa Kujoyama opened in Kyoto in 1992.
