Material: raw-shaped block of calcareous stone. Dimensions can vary and are about +/- 1m3.

The organizer puts on the artists’ disposal: tents for weather protection (rain or sun), security barriers
for protection of sculptures and working-area, trestles, electricity (220 Volts and 100 Volts only on specific
anticipated request of the artist). Other special items are to be paid by the artist him/herself.

For economic matters, the travel expenses can be carried by the organizer up to 65% of
their costs: car-travel refund is calculated individually considering distance between the artist’s residence and Luxembourg. For train or airplane travels, 65% of economy class tickets from home to
