Arbeitsplatz - a new working space for dance and performance artists in Vienna

Arbeitsplatz – Verein zur Zurverfügungstellung von Arbeitsräumen für Tanz und Performance is an initiative of 4 Vienna-based groups of artists in the fields of dance and performance consisting of Kunstverein Archipelago, Kunst- und Kulturverein Raw Matters, Clever Team/Visitores - Verein zur Projektion künstlerischer Ideen, und Doris Uhlich/ Insert Theaterverein.

Arbeitsplatz was initiated in 2013 out of an urge to create a working space, in which continuous research and work are possible.

By putting all of our individual strengths together, we have found and are in the process of setting up a space that will not only be beneficial to our own needs regarding rehearsal, research and office space, but that in the long run can be beneficial to various artists in the Viennese dance and performance scene.

After an intensive search for a suitable space Arbeitsplatz has finally found a location – a space at Vereinigte Chemische Fabriken, Siegfriedgasse 23, 1210 Vienna. In the last 6 years the spaces have been used for dance, performance and other kind of artistic work, therefore they have the basic needed infrastructure and the space is ready to be used by the Arbeitsplatz members.

The space consist of:
-A big studio (9 x 14 m)
-A small studio (ca 7 x 8m)
-Two offices
-An atelier/common room/dressing room
-An unheated workshop/storage room
-Three toilets and two showers
-Two kitchenettes and a small garden terrace
The total size of the space is about 380m2
