De Verenigde Sandbergen #65 Waiting VS Doing De Verenigde Sandbergen is the magazine of the Sandberg Instituut and is published irregularly. It’s aim is to inform a wider audience about the discours and projects on the institute. It’s a collection of voices whose sum total intends to engage.

Roeskestraat 98 1076ED Amsterdam Nederlands +31 [0] 20 588 2400 www.sandberg.nl The Sandberg Instituut, the masters of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, is named after Willem Sandberg, former director of the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, designer and charismatic champion of all things new and different in art. Since 1995, the Sandberg Instituut has offered master programmes in Fine Arts, Applied Arts, Design and since 2010 also in Interior Architecture.
4 The luxury of studying: Built on membership of an institute
Waiting VS Doing The luxury of studying is that time is on our side and we’re not burdened with reality just yet. To study is like being on an island where questions are still left with enough time to stay in search for answers instead of instantly having to answer for things unknown. Go it alone is not the premise of the institute. Instead, a flock of students from all parts of the globe form a solid group and choose to land on the Sandberg Institute to study. It’s ultimate concentration for two years on end and ruling reality out for the time being. We’re moving fast, slow and in non-linear order. We’re shaping each other with knowledge, questions, misunderstandings and cultural differences. We share a studio to learn how to serve everything that surrounds us. This year seems a year of making the extraordinary ordinary. Supposed ordinary things should be treated with dignity and regard for detail. Maybe this can be a new way to solve major questions. Instead of trying to fight problems with big words, it might be best to start off with the smaller things and let them develop in close range of what’s already there. Together, they are read differently and questions can grow larger when they share the same context. Combined thoughts bring about a wealth of new connections and notions. To find the true idiom of reality we have to consider various outcomes on the perception of reality. Words are never what they seem. Words always contain the interpretation of the author and moreover, of the person decrypting this interpretation. Which of these perceptions is closest to the truth? The supposed scientific intellectual thought governed by rules or the intuitive sense of truth found in fragments? Joined or separated? Innocence or ignorance? Fiction or reality? The head or the heart? What do we feel? What do we think? And what is real? New perceptions rhythmically pulsate out of the heart. The various Master programs attract students from all over the world. All of whom have mastered a wide variety of
skills. In turn, this results in cultural capital that can feed the imagination with unforeseen insights and exalt truly innovative ideas. The hybrid setting of the institute is the basis for augmented skill and knowledge. Integration is not the objective, but difference and reciprocal influence are. This aim is supported by the current structure of independent departments, each with their own approach, working methods and themes. How can we support the continuous growth of potential new questions and subjects? Where do we test them? How can we encourage growth? We may need some sort of collective space. A place where the different departments can meet and interact, without losing any independence. A collective space to serve as an incubator for new ideas: where the ‘luxury of studying’ rules. Come and meet us in- and outside the Sandberg Institute, where our four master courses: Fine Arts, Applied Arts, Design and Interior Architecture present their many projects at numerous locations and through different media. Please enjoy and debate our thinking. Jurgen Bey, Director Sandberg Institute

The Master Class ‘The Next City: Living and Lifestyle in Future Cities’ is a project commissioned by Dutch DFA that brought together a distinguished group of institutions, designers and thinkers to examine the implications of new approaches to projective research and design. It gathered seven schools in a multidisciplinary research of Beijing and Rotterdam: CAFA (Architecture and Graphic Design, Beijing), Tsinghua University (Industrial Design, Beijing) and BIFT (Fashion Design, Beijing) from China, TU Delft (Faculty of Architecture; The Why Factory), Design Academy Eindhoven, Sandberg Instituut Amsterdam (Design Dapartment) and ArtEZ Institute of the Arts (ArtEZ Fashion Masters) from the Netherlands. Central to this joint research and design studio was the question of how and where cities will need to change in order to accommodate future sustainable growth in respect of current conditions, and more important in its dreams and desires. ‘The Next City - Living and Lifestyle in Future Cities’ was a straightforward attempt to study the contemporary city through the investigation on its possible futures.
Object Rotterdam is the official side fair of Art Rotterdam and will be held in the Las Palmas building opposite to Art Rotterdam. Object Rotterdam is the international fair for ‘autonomous design’ and the first fair in the world that focuses exclusively on the most current developments within autonomous design. The fair is a platform for the latest designs of unique or limited edition functional objects by international designers. In short: the place where the cutting edge between art and design becomes evident. Applied Art department will have a presentation of SI Module with new works of students.
The first part of this master class took place from October 5th to 15th, when TU Delft welcomed a group of Chinese students and professors to The Netherlands to begin a collaborative exploration of Rotterdam and the Dutch city in general. The second part took place in Beijing from 18th to 28th October, where Chinese students and professors had prepared an in-depth introductory programme for their Dutch counterparts. The master class, which was part of this semester’s curriculum at all schools involved, will result in a public presentation the 31st of January at the Design Academy Eindhoven and a publication later this year.
“Aiming at the world cities, achieving the positive and fast development in Chaoyang district at a higher level.” This sentence decorates the CCTV building in the Chaoyang district, Beijing’s central axis. It rightly captures the aim of the Chinese state to push Beijing into more development and more civilisation. To take this message to the inhabitants of Beijing they created an avatar doll –named Luo Baobei– who embodies the perfect model of a Beijing citizen; joyful, young, respectful, spontaneous and utterly cute.This phenomenon of choosing an avatar-like puppet for a logo is a new thing in creating brand identities in China.
Designed to express the playful qualities of little children these mascots spread a hidden message of education, behavioral rules, responsibility towards the community, and the dream of being part of the Chinese Dream.” Photos: Lauren Grusenmeyer

“From flashmobs to GPS city games, from urban screens to digital graffiti, and from smartphone tours to augmented realities.” On the one hand, physical space is becoming more and more filled with electronic (often wireless and invisible) communication and observation networks, like GSM, GPS, wifi, Bluetooth and UMTS. On the other hand, digital space is becoming more ‘physical’ – it no longer seems possible to talk about the city as a purely physical space or the digital world as entirely virtual. The increasing intertwinement of these two spheres, which developed separately until recently, is having a major effect on the way in which we experience public space and how we behave there. Our conception of the public is changing, and the ubiquity of communication media is shifting the meaning and form of the things we tell each other.

of publicness, or can they actually generate new forms of it? What will happen if physical and digital space merge? Can we find a new kind of audience? Which other narrative forms do these new media applications offer, and how can we develop meaningful uses and productions for them?

Voor de Vrije Ruimten Zuidas AIR Masterclass zijn zeven studenten van de VU, een dito aantal van het Sandberg Instituut afdeling Ontwerpen en twee designers in residence uitgenodigd om via het medium van de grafische vormgeving na te denken over het stedelijk uitbreidingsgebied Zuidas in Amsterdam. Doel was om een artistieke reflectie op te zetten over de specifieke verhouding tussen de leefbaarheid en openbaarheid van het gebied versus de zichtbaarheid van de verschillende industrieën en instellingen die er werkzaam zijn. Hoe manifesteren deze verhoudingen zich op de Zuidas, waar de drie werelden van economie, educatie en cultuur niet alleen letterlijk naast elkaar huizen maar ook steeds meer naar elkaar lonken? Onder leiding van gastdocent Alan Smart (architect en ontwerper uit New York) en professor Wouter Davidts (hoogleraar Kunstgeschiedenis van de Moderne Tijd) hebben studenten van e VU en het Sandberg Instituut de afgelopen maanden gewerkt aan dit
project. Het heeft geleid tot zeer diverse, bevlogen en kritische onderzoeken en ontwerpen die aantonen dat de Zuidas een grotere veelzijdigheid en vooral complexiteit kent dan het gebied op het eerste gezicht doet vermoeden. Tijdens het symposium op 1 maart zullen de resultaten getoond worden, zowel tijdens een expositie en publieke presentaties, als in een speciale publicatie die dezelfde dag gepresenteerd wordt en wat aanleiding zal zijn voor een kritisch debat met diverse gebruikers en beleidsmakers van de Zuidas.

The Zuiderzee Museum in Enkhuizen will present the exhibition Nijver|heden from the end of May 2011 onwards. The exhibition contains presentations in the Museum and the Museum Park and will show the evolution of crafts before and after the closing of the Zuiderzee (1932) in relation to current developments in international and Dutch design and small-scale production (industries). Students of the Applied Art dapartment will present new work in houses of the Museum Park. Every year, the Zuiderzee Museum asks artists and designers to give their vision of the collection, the Museum, and the history of the Zuiderzee. This consistently leads to surprising new designs and artworks. The Museum displays these present-day pieces in a setting with authentic crafts and items. In this way, a fascinating interaction between the collection and present-day design and crafts is created, and the visitor is introduced to the genesis of the artworks. The Zuiderzee Museum in Enkhuizen is oriented toward art, culture and heritage around the former Zuiderzee area and the present and future IJsselmeer. As a result of its activities, approach and co-operation, the Museum has generated international allure and a broad public reach. Communities, crafts and water are the central features.

Slash/Art: An image bank for protest department Design location slashart.nl date as long as the current government is empowered tutor Rob Schröder participants Nikki Brörman, Noortje van Eekelen, Guido Giglio, Seungyong Moon, Ruben Pater, Stefan Schäfer, Yuri Veerman Collaborators Kunsten ’92, De Appel Arts Centre info slashart.nl
After the current Dutch government announced to carry out drastic cuts in the arts sector the students of the design dapartment initiated slashart.nl. This is a website that functions as an ‘image bank against the cuts in art’ and shows works by artists and designers that illustrate what happens when your cut the art-budget in halve. The students wanted to express their dissatisfaction in a positive way and invited everybody to contribute to the website. Visitors have the opportunity to download and use the designs and artworks for free, as long as they are rightly credited. Until now they have been shown among others in The Appels Art Center, W139, Stedelijk Museum and in NRC Handelsblad. With this project the students want to contribute to the public debate on arts, which is now mainly talking about the fact that the cuts come out of economic necessity. But there is more than that going on. A party like the PVV puts the budget cuts forward out of ideological reasons. They do this on a shameless brutal way. Like they try to frame the Islam as ‘extreme’, they label art as ‘elitist’. In this way they’re able to push out a sector in one move. This is ridiculous; art is for everybody in all layers of our society.

The DMY International Design Festival 2011 will take place at central former airport Berlin Tempelhof . Sandberg Institute Applied Art department will exhibit within the next festival edition. The presentation will be on show within the module New talents/ Youngsters. This module is dedicated to the support of young talents and the presentation of pioneering, research-driven projects.
Aging department Fine Arts date Saturday 22nd February 2011 time 15h to 15h30 [performance by Edwin Stolk] 17h to 19h [opening] location De Appel tutor Alicia Framis participants Jouke Anema, Arnar Asgeirson, Jolien van Hassel, Jin Jing, Tom Milnes, Edwin Stolk Suzanne Ophof, Eva Marie Rodbro, Barbara Skovmand Thomsen, Jetske Verhoeven, Sander van Wettum, Kirsten Wilmink
The workshop of Alicia Framis has an input of AGING in society and AGING as students from art going to be professional artists. Alicia Framis and her students work closely with De Appel and Volume Magazine, learning to work together in the same subset for an exhibition and a possible article in the magazine. The subset gives different possibilities: AGING connected to our own history and mixed with society, from private to public, like the work of Jolien van Hassel, Kirsten Wilmink, Jin Jing, Barbara Skovmand Thomsen, Suzanne Ophof, Jetske Verhoeven.
AGING can be related to a place, to a city, a specific context, like the Works of Jouke Anema and Sander van Wettum. AGING has to do with actions towards society like Edwin Stolk. One part of this generation of artists are dealing with post production, after postmodernism, the new production of layers like Tom Milnes, or Arnar Asgeirson and Eva Marie Rodbro. Manon van Trier approaches AGING as the song of surrealist actions. At the same time, in our working hours we develop our own AGING, how to be a student of art, as an artist that is selfsupportive?
One of Alicia Framis tasks is to prepare the students for the imminent future, to be an artist in society: loans, contacts, inventories, contracts, visiting galleries, preparing the studio. The group of AGING will have a show, and a presentation of their research to ARCHIS VOLUME# 27 magazine, and a page in facebook AGING Sandberg students.

This workshop at the Sandberg Instituut is organised by Helmut Dick and Jeroen Boomgaard in order to combine practise and theory around artistic strategies in public spaces.
Participants are rethinking the spatial and programmatic organization of the Sandberg Institute. The Sandberg becomes a laboratory for testing new ideas that enhance the production of knowledge and challenge the current structures.
like the for example internet platforms. Based on this first part the participants developed ‘structure specific’ concepts for individual projects.
Jeroen Boomgaard is art historian and writer, working at the University of Amsterdam, and, as a professor of Art and Public Space, at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie [www.lkpr. nl].
This process is accompanied by theory classes introducing important thinkers writing about public space. Later the theory part focused on the development of the individual participants and their projects. Beside this theoretical discourse it will be important to realize as many ideas as possible and to finish the workshop with an exhibition of the developed concepts.
Sil Krol
Participants play simultaneously the role of designer, clients, and user, and they will “live” on the site of their assignment, surrounded by the people who use it as well. This initiates a process of observing each other, testing the users, and experimenting in real-time, one-to-one situations.
Sil Krol
Helmut Dick is an internationally working artist based in Amsterdam who is specialised in public space projects [www.helmutdick.de].
The participants started with discovering, researching and documenting non-economical structures and encounters. They worked with physical structures in the public space (in a range of about 3 km around the Sandberg Institute) and researched other ‘layers’ of public space

That rare and unique situation will bring inspiring intensity to the process that will result into proposals will a strong conceptual base and a daring and thrilling design.
The workshop is attended by an international group of students from the Sandberg Instituut and the University of Amsterdam.

For their free choice, students are given the opportunity to research and work out their own interests and questions. They are able to acquire a total of 6 credits for their activities under free choice during the entire programme. Students are at liberty to choose how and when to make use of their free choice. The free choice can be used to broaden and deepen knowledge and experience. The aim of the first free choice project is to focus on a final project within 24 hours. To choose a main topic and omit all the side issues.
Local authority, property developers, house-agents, urban designers and architects determine our housing conditions. Interior architecture focuses on the domain of individual housing with private clients. Present questions as how to condense existing cities, using unoccupied buildings and re-using the existing housing supply call for new ideas and solutions on dwelling. These prospects and the position of the interior in non-private housing tasks will be researched. Approaching the house as a product we will deal with audience, spatial need, use, duration in combination with the qualifications and properties of it’s new contexts.

“Political language, as used by politicians, does not venture into any of this territory [of the artist] since the majority of politicians, on the evidence available to us, are interested not in truth but in power and in the maintenance of that power. To maintain that power it is essential that people remain in ignorance, that they live in ignorance of the truth, even the truth of their own lives. What surrounds us therefore is a vast tapestry of lies, upon which we feed.” [Harold Pinter, 1930– 2008, Nobel Prize 2005]
Non Productive Labour in a Self-Made System, Samantha Thole.
The world is a city. And in that sense everything is planned, built, lived within and suffered within. Planning is necessary, every inch of space is important. That seems true. But that is only partially true. Designers and planners planning parts of the world. And that planning lubricates out over time and space. This inevitably results in residual space. Space between planned objects, parcels, and infrastructure. This residual space is no man’s land. The no man’s land is characterized as a ‘neutral zone’. Identifying that zone is the issue. The no man’s land we’re going to occupy. With all possible means that the artist has available. Video, performance, text, images, installations, et cetera. Whether or not on the spot.
The students who joined the “table of dialogue” have been challenged to analyze, discuss and evaluate the effectiveness of the issues and the skills required to make their ideas work in practice. The aim was to create an atmosphere capable of activating critical and creative dialogue between the participants, reflecting how art is produced, perceived and received.
Stage-parallel world-6, Jin Jing.
Intention VS Accident Dirk Comello: In the city along the traffic. Downward and upward movements around a place no one enters. The space and its interaction accentuated. Ina Marie Schmidt: As far as I remember: A journey along German history. “It felt as if we had discovered something special, even though we didn’t find anything.” Edwin Stolk: The no man’s land as well as the non-space only exists by human categorization of an experienced space, but it’s a farce, to eliminate this dominant point of view we have to become part of a lived connection in a radical way. Maki Umehara: Considering about left over space: I looked around me for such a space. I thought of a kind of formal or official text, describing art works is really left over space. So, it was an interesting public space for me, to make an artist statement in an award catalogue with my text.

Between two lives & city real estate / Annelou van Griensven Jury rapport: “Between two lives is een geraffineerd ontworpen en fraai getypografeerd verslag van een bijzonder intrigerend project dat om die reden bovengemiddelde belangstelling van de jury kreeg. ‘City Island Real Estate’ brengt de rafelranden van de stad in beeld en – in tekst en typografie- de mooie beloften van van de vastgoedsector. Het contrast is duidelijk, maar ook humoristisch en daarom is ‘City Island Real Estate’ geen aanklacht. Complimenten waren er voor de redactie en vormgeving.Volledigheidshalve: ‘Between two lives’ is reeds bekroond in het kader van ‘De Best Verzorgde Boeken 2009’.” Meer informatie: www. annelouvangriensven.nl **
VPRO-Jaarverslag Michele Champagne & Brigiet van den Berg Jury rapport: “Het omslag, het gouden leeslint en de fotospreads verraden dat het VPRO-verslag ook bestemd is voor de buitenwacht. Verder lijkt het voor intern gebruik. Alles en werkelijk alles staat er in, deels goed geschreven en getypografeerd, deels de reacties van luisteraars, kijkers, lezers en andere critici - (ogenschijnlijk) gewoon gekopieerd. Het VPRO-verslag is een beetje een rommeltje dus, maar wel een heel intrigerend en spannend rommeltje waarin je graag wilt snuffelen”*
Lima 2427 & Todos Somos Dateros / Camila Bustamente Jury rapport: “Lima 2427 (een denkbeeldige campagne voor een nieuwe treinlijn) en Todos somos dateros (een interactief mapping project om de publieke opinie over het openbaar vervoer vorm te geven en kenbaar te maken) maakten, mede door de optimale toepassing van het medium en vanwege hun maatschappelijke relevantie, grote indruk op de jury. Daarnaast was de jury vol lof over het concept van Todos somos dateros en over de omvang en uitwerking van het project. Voorbeeldig!” Zie ook: www.lima2427.pe en www. datea.pe **

Sandberg VS All
Kunstprijzen info De jury: Hilde de Bruijn, Hanne Hagenaars, Ad de Jong, Lotje van Lieshout – besprak zondag in Kunsthuis SYB het werk dat de vijf genomineerden hier de afgelopen drie weken tijdens een werkperiode zelf installeerden.
Koninklijke Prijs voor Vrije Schilderkunst Jenny Lindblom Jury raport: Jenny Lindblom (1981) Het nachtelijke palet van Jenny Lindblom is sensueel, maar bovendien vervuld van een sluimerende, emotionele lading. De jonge vrouwen en soms mannen die opdoemen in het maanlicht bespelen elkaar en hun omgeving, inclusief de kijker. Er worden glimpen zichtbaar van een broeierige groepsdynamiek en verlangen naar zelfbevestiging. De blond oplichtende kapsels reflecteren het spel met de maan dat hier wordt gespeeld.
Sybren Hellinga Kunstprijs Jetske Verhoeven De vijfde Sybren Hellinga Kunstprijs is uitgereikt aan Jetske Verhoeven (Nijmegen, 1980). De jury prijst met name haar film J’attends la guerre, (wachtend op de oorlog) die “getuigt van een persoonlijke en sterke aanwezigheid en vindingrijkheid, ook in het gebruik van taal. Hiermee brengt ze een spanning teweeg tussen wat zichtbaar is en het onvertaalde en onzichtbare. Ze slaagde erin werk te maken gebaseerd op persoonlijke ervaringen, dat het persoonlijke overstijgt en verbindt met urgente, gedeelde sociaalpolitieke omstandigheden.” De prijs bestaat uit een bedrag van 3000 euro.
22 De Parasiet HET IS WACHTEN OP DE NIEUWE WERELD (We’ll have to wait for the new world) This edition of de VS features the first appearance of De Parasiet (The Parasite), a wandering unit that attaches itself to healthy, independent publications. This first manifestation is derived from a Sandberg project of 2010 in Kunsthuis Syb, Beetsterzwaag called The Colony. The sentence displayed is a quotation from the gravestone inscription of Sybren Hellinga (1926-2000), founder of Kunsthuis Syb. It proves to be everlasting up to date.
