It&#8217;s\u00a0name refers to the classical Akademia, a place where philosophers, academics and artists meet to test and exchange ideas and knowledge.\u00a0Rijksakademie creates an environment in which artists can concentrate on research, experimental and creating progressive art. A two-year retreat where artists can really focus on developing their work. This has spawned many world renowned artists.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>For this unique exhibition Foam has selected a few Rijksakademie alumni of recent years that have worked in varied ways with photography as medium or subject. Their inquiring attitude has been translated to images that deal with the visualisation of history, looking and the interpretation of archives. Participating artists, among others, are Gwenneth Boelens, Lotte Geeven &amp; Sema Bekirovic, Zachary Formwalt, Gert Jan Kocken and Paulien Oltheten.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition does justice to the foundations of the Rijksakademie and reflects the consistent high quality of the former residents of this internationally renowned institution.\u00a0With this exhibition Foam underlines the importance and unique position of the Rijksakademie for the development of exceptionally talented (inter)national artists.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1494\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Re-Search-Alumni-Rijks-08-CvdK.tif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Re-Search-Alumni-Rijks-03-CvdK.tif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1493\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Re-Search-Alumni-Rijks-03-CvdK.tif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1494\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Re-Search-Alumni-Rijks-08-CvdK.tif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1495\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Re-Search-Alumni-Rijks-16-CvdK.tif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1496\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Re-Search-Alumni-Rijks-14-CvdK.tif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Commissioned by Foam Artists Gwenneth Boelens, Lotte Geeven &amp; Sema Bekirovic, Zachary Formwalt, Gert Jan Kocken, Alexandra Leykauf, Paulien Oltheten, [&hellip;]\n&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/2013\/01\/re-search-alumni-of-the-rijksakademie\/\">>>><\/a><\/a>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-985","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-curating"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=985"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/985\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1262,"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/985\/revisions\/1262"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=985"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kimknoppers.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
