Jan van Eyck Academie
Post-academic Institute for Research and Production
Fine Art, Design, Theory
_____________
Call for applications
Deadline: 15 April 2006
Artists, designers and theoreticians are invited to submit research and
production proposals to become a researcher at the Jan van Eyck
Academie. Candidates can either apply with a topic of their own or for
a project formulated by the institute itself. In order to realise these
projects, the Jan van Eyck offers the necessary made-to-measure
artistic, technical and auxiliary preconditions.
___________
Profile
The Jan van Eyck
Academie is an institute for research and production in the fields of
fine art, design and theory. Every year, 48 international researchers
realise their individual or collective projects in the artistic and
challenging environment that is the Jan van Eyck. The institute is not
led by predetermined leitmotivs. Artists, designers and theoreticians
can submit independently formulated proposals for research and/or
production in the Fine Art, Design and Theory department or candidates
can apply for collective research projects formulated by the Jan van
Eyck (see below). The miscellaneous nature of these research projects
and productions makes the Jan van Eyck into a multi-disciplinary
institute. This also shows in the programme of the institute.
Researchers, departments and the institute organise various weekly
activities, to which special speakers are invited: lectures, seminars,
workshops, screenings, exhibitions, discussions,... External interested
parties are welcome to attend these activities. The result is a
dynamic and critical exchange between the different agents from within
and outside of the Jan van Eyck.
Facilities
Researchers are advised by a team of artists, designers and
theoreticians who have won their spurs globally. They receive their
own studio and a stipend. Furthermore, researchers can make use of all
kinds of facilities which support their projects from first concept to
public presentation: the library, the documentation centre, various
workshops (wood and other materials; graphic techniques; photography;
digital text and image processing and editing; time-based media) and
the production bureau (assistance with print work, editing and all
other productions, pr and distribution).
Application
Candidates can apply for a department or a collective research project
as listed below. The one- or two-year research period at a department
starts in January 2007. The start and duration of research periods of
collective projects differ.

Fine Art department
The Fine Art department encourages both personal and discursive
exchange amongst its researchers in order to establish a context of
practice-oriented discussion; a context that considers
issue-orientation alongside other artistic approaches, as well as
being driven by processing, producing, organizing and going public.
Advising researchers: Orla Barry, Aglaia Konrad, John Murphy, Hinrich
Sachs
More information:
http://janvaneyck.nl/4_0_departments/fineart_statement.html
Design department
The Design department focuses on design as research, design as
discourse, design as publishing. It initiates and supports research
projects in the areas of cultural and corporate identity, mapping,
print and new media publishing, urban and regional identity, and book
design. Coming from a focus on graphic and communication design, the
department is widening its scope to include spatial, product and
service design.

The Theory department offers a stimulating environment for
critical inquiry and intense debate to explore alternative ways of
shaping intellectual horizons. The department welcomes researchers who
pursue their artistic and/or intellectual vision anywhere on the
interface of critical theory, philosophy, aesthetics, and
psychoanalysis with the visual arts.
Advising researchers: Norman Bryson, Sabeth Buchmann, Helmut Draxler,
Stephan Geene, Hanneke Grootenboer, Marc De Kesel

Collective research projects

Traces of autism. Wander-research in the Euregio Meuse-Rhine
This research project concerns the making of an inventory of
public space in the Euregio Meuse-Rhine, based on journeys made
through the area and following a number of strict parameters. During
the research the inner borders of the Euregio will function as a
reference line and a kind of reading axis. Gypsies, refugees,
migrants, drug addicts can possibly function as indicators, although
other indicators may come to the fore in the Euregio. The emphasis
will be on maps: on the one hand, existing maps will be collected, on
the other, new maps will be developed. During the entire research
period, the French pedagogue Fernand Deligny (1913-1996) will be
considered a supporter, someone who walks in the footsteps of the
researchers, as he did for thirty years: following autistic patients,
without intervention, only registering, not even wanting to 'learn'
anything.
Advising researcher: Wim Cuyvers

Logo Parc. Challenging the aesthetics of economy
Logo Parc is a design research project for
public space. Its main focus of interest is the Zuidas (South Axis) in
Amsterdam; a prestigious area of high-rise office blocks, residential
and cultural facilities on both sides of the A10 motorway. The Zuidas
is considered a new typology of city, dedicated to the symbolic
representation of economy, information, knowledge and mobility.
Logo Parc is driven by a critical interest in the
representation of power and economy; both to deconstruct it, and to
create it. As a machine for comments, ideas and visions for the
Zuidas, the project aims to fuel discussion as well as trigger actual
design issues, operating freely in an area in between architectural,
spatial and communication design.
Logo Parc is a joint project of Jan van Eyck
Academie, Lectoraat Kunst en Publieke Ruimte, Gerrit Rietveld Academy
/ Amsterdam University, and Premsela Dutch Design Foundation.
Advising researcher: Daniël van der Velden

The tomorrow book
The research project The tomorrow book intends
to query the future of the book from a multi-disciplinary standpoint.
In doing so, the following aspects will be treated: editing,
typography, book design, publishing and distribution. Convinced of the
fact that the book will never cease to exist, The tomorrow
book focuses on the specific qualities of the book as a
medium. The umbrella theme of the project The tomorrow
book is navigation to, within and beyond the book.
The tomorrow book is a joint research project of the
Jan van Eyck Academie and the Charles Nypels Foundation.
Advising researchers: Will Holder, Filiep Tacq

UbiScribe
The research project and on-line publication platform
UbiScribe researches into the explosive development
of many forms of multi-medial and multi-disciplinary chronicles such
as weblogs, blogs, vlogs and photologs. It focuses on new modes of
authoring and of on-line and off-line publishing, in which networked
information and communication support the conception, production and
distribution of original publishing formats in whatever media. Apart
from stimulating research on personal(ised) publishing (hardware,
software and content), UbiScribe investigates
so-called 'content management systems' and how they are applied in
artistic production.
Advising researcher: Jouke Kleerebezem

The pensive image
The pensive image is a research project on
thinking images. This project studies the extent to which images
(painting, photography, cinema etc.) are able to philosophize on the
status of their own representation, and on the nature of vision. The
project is based on the hypothesis that monocular models of vision
such as perspective and the camera have shaped our binocular
perception of the world. Following Hubert Damisch, W.J.T. Mitchell,
among others, The pensive image aims at formulating a
theory as to how images 'think' about vision through a study of images
that 'look back' at us, viewers.
Advising researcher: Hanneke Grootenboer

Circle for Lacanian ideology Critique
The Jan van Eyck Circle for Lacanian Ideology Critique (CLiC)
gathers researchers who are interested in Lacanian theory and consider
it an open set of tools that enable researchers to critically consider
contemporary (post-)modern culture. CLiC intends to activate the
psychoanalytical - and especially Lacanian - background of many
current philosophers and critics, such as Agamben, Badiou, Jameson,
Laclau, Mouffe, Negri, Derrida, Nancy, Rancière, Zizek and Zupancic.
Insight into the Lacanian background of these theories is
indispensable to discover the very core of their critical
potentialities, which is why a confrontation with and a reading of the
Lacanian text is one of CLiC's main objectives.

Citygraphy. 19th century and 21st century topographic photography in
Maastricht
Citygraphy examines the role of 19th century
photography in the consciousness and perception of the European city
as a historic focal point - a fulcrum subject to the powers of
modernization. Contrasts between urban centres and expanding suburbs,
between handicraft and industrial production, between transport by
water and over land, between conservation and redevelopment, between
restoration as both a form of protection and of rebuilding, between
the interests of residents and those of visitors all determine the
overall politics of life. What role did the visual image play in all
of this, and in particular, what was the role of photography?
The research project Citygraphy is a commission for a
photographer/researcher. The commission concerns the development of a
personal photographic vision of 21st century Maastricht, taking the
19th century city images of Maastricht as a starting point.
Citygraphy is a joint project of the Jan van Eyck
Academie and Hogeschool St. Lukas Brussel and is subsidized by
Stichting Werner Mantz.
Artistic coordinator: Dirk Lauwaert
