Open Studios 2023

  • Welcome to our annual Rijksakademie Open Studios. This year we have studio presentations by 48 artists, and alongside this, group presentations, collaborative projects, a film programme and a full programme of events, talks and performances. Together these show the extensive range of artistic propositions, positions, practices and ideas that are being developed at the Rijksakademie all year round.

    Our environment offers artists an expansive technical infrastructure and specialists that enables them to traverse different media, and gain intellectual input from artistic advisors and peers alike. This creates a unique site for artistic development and exchange, and a continual exploration of what art can be, do and mean from many different perspectives, forming new kinds of imaginaries, invention and engagement with matters at stake in the world today through practice.

    The artistic coordination of this Open Studios is in the hands of Metahaven, who are part of our group of artistic advisors. They have been in dialogue with the artists on the presentations.

  • There is no single unifying theme or frame to describe the work of the artists taking part in the 2023 Open Studios. There are proximities on the level of content, there are relationships between ways of being in an institution, and there are parallels in the usage of media and materialisation. Yet, what braids these resident artists together, in our view, is the sensibility they put to their work.

    At the 2023 Open Studios you will find art in the midst of its development, in the midst of its moment of becoming. Art that genuinely makes one feel, genuinely makes one think, genuinely makes one wonder. Art that is originating from many different experiences of, and ways of being in the world. The works are experiential on the one hand, and intimate on the other. Liveliness and joy, gravitas and determination abound, and oscillate.

    This year the studio presentations are joined by a group presentation, happening in two spaces. Many of the current resident artists share a work of theirs near a work of someone else. The baseline of this presentation was that all resident artists were invited to participate.

    The enthusiasm with which this group presentation came together says something about the conviviality shared by the residents, the organisation, and our fellow advisors.
