Collaborate with us and work on innovative solutions for tomorrows challenges. The Willem de Kooning Academy offers contemporary and cutting-edge art courses that complement changing, international practice. The outside world is no longer looking for the autonomous artist or the graphic designer, but rather for people who possess a multitude of talents and skills and who look beyond the borders of their original discipline. These are ‘creating pioneers’. The speed and complexity of technological developments strongly influence contemporary and future professional practice. Our students will work both at local and at international levels with professionals from different disciplines in open and virtual settings. Projects Our education thrives on interchange of knowledge with the outside world. Working on boundary breaking projects and looking for creative partners? In desperate need of hands-on and media savvy interns? Don’t hesitate and contact us. Our academy connects your professional practice to our students, tutors and expertise. Internships Our academy acts as an intermediary between students and companies. On top of this, we invite professionals and students to exchange skills, knowledge and experiences during our annual portfolio night on October 3, 2018.
