Jan van Eyck Open Call for Residencies

Jan van Eyck's annual Call for Applications is now open!

Application deadline: 1 December 23:59 CET

Artists, writers, curators, architects, and designers ranging from graphic and fashion to food and social design, are welcome to apply for an 11-month residency starting in November 2022.

The Jan van Eyck Academie in Maastricht (the Netherlands) is committed to exploring the agency, roles, and civic significance of art, design and other creative practices in relation to climate change, environmental breakdown, and their manifold effects. This institutional focus aims at creating a common-ground that embraces a diversity of practices and allows for a multitude of voices.

As a post-academic institute, the Jan van Eyck Academie supports this myriad of artistic endeavours by offering participants the time, space and expertise to further develop, materialise and disseminate their artistic research in a critical and reciprocal relationship with each other and the world.

The academy provides each selected participant with a private studio; guidance of our advisers; access to our library and labs – Photography & Audiovisual, Material Matters, Food, Printing & Publishing, and Future Materials; and expertise of departments for Nature Research, Art & Society and Research & Education. Next to their individual projects, participants are encouraged to collaboratively develop an In-Lab project and to contribute to the Jan van Eyck public programme.

You can find all information about the application and selection procedure as well as the link for the application form here.

*If you live in Flanders, Belgium, you also have the opportunity to apply for a residency at the Jan van Eyck Academie through the Flemish Government. Please find all info here.
