Applications are invited for the 2025 Maumaus Independent Study Programme, which will run from January 9 until July 25, 2025.

The intense programme runs for 27 weeks (312 contact hours) and is devised and organised by the art theorist and curator Jürgen Bock (director of the Maumaus School and Residency Programme and its associated exhibition space Lumiar Cité).

The programme is open to a maximum of twenty-two participants (artists or art-related researchers or other professionals). The programme is designed to encourage the participants to analyse and develop their art practice in a stimulating, intellectually rigorous, yet informal environment. The programme creates a context for the internalisation of comprehension and knowledge through discussion and critical thinking. Besides regular classes of critical studies and group discussions, seminars, workshops and lectures will offer insights and multiple perspectives on current thinking inside and outside—but always in relation to—the field of art and are devised by a range of internationally renowned artists/film-makers such as Ed AtkinsGerry BibbyManthia DiawaraErica Love/João EnxutoJihan El-TahriLoretta FahrenholzRenée GreenFlorian HeckerTonio KrönerUriel OrlowChristodoulos PanayiotouJoão PenalvaSimon Thompson and Fredrik Værslev; art historians Sabeth BuchmannHelmut DraxlerToni HildebrandtGertrud Sandqvist and Kerstin Stakemeier; philosophers Stefanie BaumannBojana CvejićAlexander García DüttmannEsther LeslieMichael MarderAlberto ToscanoSjoerd van Tuinen and Giovanbattista Tusa; sociologist Avery F. Gordon; anthropologist Filip De Boeck; writers Anne Boyer and Adania Shibli; and social theorists Brenna BhandarRuth Wilson GilmoreJules Gleeson and Manuela Ribeiro Sanches. Studio visits allow practitioners to develop their work through discussions with Gerry BibbyJürgen BockTonio KrönerUriel OrlowJoão PenalvaGertrud Sandqvist and Simon Thompson.
