AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Call for Applications
Maastricht, Netherlands, January 2007

Artists, designers and theoreticians are invited to submit research
and production proposals to become a researcher at the Jan van Eyck
Academie, an institute for research and production in the fields of
fine art, design and theory. Artists, designers and theoreticians
can submit independently formulated proposals for research and/or
production in the Fine Art, Design and Theory department. Candidates
can also apply for collective research projects formulated by the
institute. In order to realise these projects, the Jan van Eyck
offers the necessary made-to-measure artistic, technical and
auxiliary preconditions.

Every year, 48 international researchers realise their individual or
collective projects in the artistic and challenging environment of
the Jan van Eyck Academie. Researchers, departments and the
institute organise various weekly activities, to which special
speakers are invited: lectures, seminars, workshops, screenings,
exhibitions, discussions, etc. External interested parties are
welcome to attend these activities � the result is a dynamic and
critical exchange.

Advised by a team of artists, designers and theoreticians,
researchers receive their own studio and a scholarship. Candidates
can apply for a department or a collective research project. The one-
or two-year research period at a department starts in January 2007.
Application deadline is 15 April 2006. More information about the
application procedure can be found at
