Studium Generale is an extensive transdisciplinary theory program that addresses students and faculty at all departments of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
It regularly opens
up to broader audiences.
Studium Generale Rietveld Academie wants to show how art and design are linked with other domains (from the personal to the political, from the vernacular to the academic), how our ‘now’ is linked with past and future, our ‘here’ with ‘elsewhere’. In the belief that art students can only learn to think independently when knowledge, imagination and reflection combine to work together in an unorthodox and critical way, Studium Generale Rietveld Academie embarks every year on slightly unruly and therefore always exciting research trajectories.
Annually selected curators and numerous guest lecturers from all over the world propose a wide variety of entry points to contemporary discourse.
