“PILOTENKUECHE” is an international art program based in Europe’s boomtown Leipzig, Germany. The independent project is organized by artists with a transdisciplinary background between art, theory & diverse sciences with the aim to support and boost artistic experience.

The project invites within the “International Residency Program” selected artists from around the world to come and work in the 465m² communally used, fully remodeled space for a period of three months. The concept encourages experimental strategies and embraces a trans-disciplinary ethos, aiming to provide our participants with the experience of accomplishing something collectively. In a group of around eleven international artists working in the space and two local participants participating on our program activities, a stimulating dialogue becomes vital in fostering an independent position in one’s work while binding the individuals temporarily within the group, which leads to a long-term network that exists even after the program is over.

Due to internal changes the program is looking for a new, fresh and motivated “Program Coordinator”. The job will start on 01.04.18 with a one month internship in advance to get introduced into the structure and the tasks by the former coordinator and the director. All selected applicants will be invited for a personal interview in which details will be discussed. We accept applications until 15.02.18.
