For over 150 years, the Rijksakademie has been invested in artistic development and forward-thinking art. Departing from the vision that artists play an essential role in an open and innovative society, they create the conditions for artists to thrive, and to keep reimagining the transformative power of art.
In the residency program, they house an artist community that is highly international, multi-disciplinary, experimental and critically engaged. Spending up to two years in residence, artists enter into an open-ended process where they can deepen their practices, and explore new territories, in and beyond the art field.
