_____________
The Jan van Eyck Academie is an institute for research
and production 
where artists, designers and theoreticians work
alongside each other 
and establish cross-disciplinary exchange.

The Fine Art department offers a unique space for
experimentation, 
production, reflection and debate. The researchers in
the department 
conduct high-quality research in an environment that
encourages the 
questioning of the assumptions, forms, meanings and
contexts that are tied in with the practice of making
art today. We welcome artists, 
individuals and groups, without stipulating conditions
regarding form, 
content and media.

Artists are invited to apply for a research period in
the Fine Art 
department of up to two years, starting in January
2008. The central 
element of the application is your project proposal,
in which you set 
out the form and content of your research and
production plans. The 
application deadline is 1 October 2007.

_____________
Programme

The Fine Art department is headed by the advising
researchers Orla 
Barry, Aglaia Konrad, Hinrich Sachs and Imogen
Stidworthy. Their 
principal task is to advise the Fine Art researchers
in the development
 
of their work.

The artistic practice is supported by a programme of
events and 
sustained conversations that are organised by the
researchers and 
advising researchers according to their interests.
Throughout the year 
professionals from different fields are invited to set
up discursive 
events, on a formal and informal level, such as
presentations, 
lectures, studio visits, performances and other forms
of intervention. 
The programme is open to researchers from all three
departments.

For more information about the programme please visit
the academy 
website (www.janvaneyck.nl) which includes an
extensive list of current
 
and past research projects, activities, events and
publications, as 
well as biographical information and links of current
researchers and 
advising researchers. Prospective candidates are also
welcome to visit 
the academy in person.

_____________
