Jan Van Eyck Academie, from September 16th to December 15th, 2023, Maastricht
Communal Enthusiasm is the exhibition celebrating the Jan Van Eyck Academie’s 75th anniversary. Communal Enthusiasm brings together works by academy alumni, advisers, staff, and directors. With the oldest items dating back to the early 1950s, this exhibition activates the archive and brings to light overlooked artworks; some of which have not been seen since their completion. The curator Pádraic E. Moore invited us to design the exhibition.
The artifacts making up this exhibition do highlight particular tendencies that distinguish the history of this organization. The scenography holds together the artworks using a set of anonymous grey platforms. They are conceived as an assemblage of old and new podiums found at the academy, that can be shaped in endless compositions.
