Artist/Studio Assistant

I am looking for a reliable, flexible and detail-oriented studio assistant mainly for the production and preparation of artworks. Perfect internship for fine art students.

The work will contain textile techniques such as sewing, stitching, embroidery and applications; building and stretching frames; basic painting jobs; etc., possibly social media and administrative work and providing help with setting up installations and exhibitions.

My Vienna studio offers a 70sm working and storage room, leading to a large courtyard, that can be used for working outside, as well as having a coffee in the sun. In the front section there are two rooms, one used for meetings and paper work, the other functions as a textile working room. I also have a fairly well equipped separate wood workshop, and of course a small kitchen.  

I am open for applications for an internship starting now to latest September. Preferred duration is 2 - 4 months with a minimum of 5 hour per week and full-time possibility, depending on skills and arrangement. Speaking English or German is required.

The intern position is unpaid, however an Erasmus subsidy is possible. In exchange I offer a personal desk space and working area in my large studio, as well as access to all studio equipment. Furthermore you will acquire insight to the studio work of an artist, the structure of self-employment and gallery relation, as well as the preparation, organisation and installations of exhibitions.

All applications must include a portfolio and a short motivational letter and sent via email to [email protected]
