The Van Eyck invites artists, designers, architects, landscape architects, curators, critics, writers to apply for a residency at the Jan van Eyck Academie for 6 to 12 months.

The Van Eyck in Maastricht (NL) is an international, multidisciplinary institute for talent development that offers time and space to develop your own projects in an inspiring, multiform working environment.

The multiform character of the Van Eyck appeals to the artistic and intellectual versatility of the participants and enables them to deepen and ramify their talents and skills in the short and long run. The work of the participants is the effect and the result of various interlinked processes. It especially testifies to an art practice that is investigative and committed.

The Van Eyck offers: your own studio; studio visits by (guest)advisors; well-equipped Labs (print, photography/new media, wood, metal, a library, a lab for nature research and a Food Lab); collaborative projects with civic partners and partners from science and the arts; a public programme of events, talks, workshops, symposia and exhibitions.
