NOTE ON THE IN-LAB:
the In-Lab is not a physical space but a new initiative at the academy. This initiative still has to evolve and grow, hopefully with the enthusiasm and ideas of new participants. It totally depends on your input what a possible In-Lab will entail. Goal is to interact, work together with fellow participants on shared interests, to not only be at work on your own project in your own studio and to just make the most out of your stay at the Van Eyck. We certainly do not expect a detailed plan or In-Lab proposal at this stage, but we would like to know about your interests and ideas beyond your own project proposal and to get an idea of the topic(s) you would like to research within the framework of an In-Lab. Only 500 words.
Ambition
The Jan van Eyck Academie is an international post-academic art institute that offers space to ambitions, plans and work of artists, designers, writers, curators, thinkers. The Jan van Eyck Academie has a long history of recurrent development. Now, once more, the institute finds itself at the crossroads of change, which is being shaped with its new participants, from 1 January 2013. That is why the Jan van Eyck Academie is looking for pioneers, trailblazers with the ambition to make the Eyck Academie into the post-academy of the future.
