From July 26 to August 15, 2024, artists have the opportunity to participate in an Art Camp in Mongolia.

During the first three days in Ulaanbaatar, we will visit the Zanabazar-Museum and the Chinggis Khaan National Museum and meet with curators and artists to learn more about Mongolia’s cultural background, which is characterized by Tengrism, Buddhism, Khanate cultures and shaman traditions that are still alive in a post-nomadic republic and give women a stronger role in gender relations.

The Art Camp will be set up near a nomadic ger village located near Bayannur in Bulgan province, halfway between Ulaanbaatar and Kharakhorum.

The stay will take place in gers (Mongolian traditional yurts), far away from electricity and water connections. From there, historical sites and sacred mountains will be visited, as well as the old capital Kharakhorum. During this time, the participants share the nomadic-style yurts. No electricity, no running water, sleeping and eating together in the gers (with an occasional break in the next settlement for refreshments).

From August 14 to 28, an exhibition will be held at the Fine Arts Zanabazar Museum featuring the works created during the Art Camp.
