The Network Institute sends a great thanks to Vere van Hal for the warm welcome at Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam and the opportunity for VU people to exchange ideas with our counterparts at the Rietveld Academie.

We had the pleasure of listening to two inspiring presentations by Sonja Bäumel on transdisplinary collaborations and Elena Kurthova on the Art and Research Programme.

The morning ended in the garden of Rietveld with an activity organized by the Garden Department. Keep an eye out for the next encounter in February also on behalve of Wende Wallert, Emrys Karlas Ivano Malavolta, Jaro Pichel, Renée Hartog, Hannah Stoffels, Joris M. Koene, Jeroen Kramer, Joseefke Brabander, Mariken Overdijk and many more.
