CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
VROMAN FELLOWSHIP 

Application deadline: 7 November

The Van Eyck and the Vroman Foundation jointly offer a Fellowship in the form of a 6-month residency at the Van Eyck. The Vroman Fellowship is open to an artist, designer, writer or other maker whose area of creative activity straddles the border between art and science ‒ in the spirit of the polymath Leo Vroman (1915-2014).

"I am sure there is a beauty in our world that has not yet been shown and could not be expressed without either one of these two fields." Leo Vroman, 2012.

The Vroman Fellow will work at the Van Eyck during the half-year April-September 2018, in the company of 35 – 40 other participants (artists, designers, architects, curators).

The Vroman Fellow will enjoy the use of an individual studio and an apartment. The Van Eyck also provides studio visits by staff and guest mentors; the use of well-equipped Labs (printing & publishing, photography/new media, woodwork, metalwork, nature research and a library; collaborative projects with partners from the public, scientific and artistic realms; a public programme of lectures, events, workshops, symposia and exhibitions.

During the residency period, the Vroman Fellow is expected to create new work with palpable cross-disciplinary qualities. A public presentation of the work is part of the residency period.
