Profile
The Jan van Eyck Academie is an institute for research and production
in the fields of fine art, design and theory. Every year, 48
international researchers realise their individual or collective
projects in the artistic and challenging environment that is the Jan
van Eyck. The institute is not led by predetermined leitmotivs.
Artists, designers and theoreticians can submit independently
formulated proposals for research and/or production in the Fine Art,
Design and Theory department or candidates can apply for collective
research projects formulated by the Jan van Eyck (see below). The
miscellaneous nature of these research projects and productions makes
the Jan van Eyck into a multi-disciplinary institute. This also shows
in the programme of the institute. Researchers, departments and the
institute organise various weekly activities, to which special
speakers are invited: lectures, seminars, workshops, screenings,
exhibitions, discussions
