Nestled within the heart of Leipzig and just a stone’s throw south of the bustling metropolis of Berlin, the Ridiculum International Art Residency (RIAR) stands as a beacon for artistic exploration and innovation. As a hub of creativity, RIAR not only enjoys its prime location in one of Germany’s most dynamic cities but is also on the cusp of an exciting expansion. We are extending our reach to Altenburg, a charming city located just 40 minutes from Leipzig. This expansion into Altenburg promises to offer even more opportunities for artists to immerse themselves in diverse cultural landscapes, fostering an environment where creativity knows no bounds. Join us at RIAR, where the unique spirit of Leipzig and the fresh horizons of Altenburg combine to create a perfect backdrop for artistic endeavors and international exchange. Our organization boasts many exceptional contacts for art galleries and festivals. Depending on the project and the artist, the possibility for art exhibitions in Leipzig, Altenburg, and Berlin is possible.
