Dutch Art Institute, DAI Public Events

The DAI can not be compared to a traditional, studio-based program for visual art production. As an officially registered graduate school with a highly experimental profile we offer a space for research.

Focusing on art, but explicitly granting attention to the crossings and interactions with other domains, disciplines and knowledges, DAI provides emerging artists, art writers, artist researchers and artist curators with a two-year English taught program that enables them to deepen their critical exploration of theoretical, conceptual, curatorial and productional aspects of art, both at the forefront and at the fringes of contemporary practice. We aim to promote new perspectives on collaboration and exchange, production and distribution, ethics and aesthetics and to bring together practitioners from all over the world, a 'fleeting' community committed to art and theory, to imagination and desire, to resistance to 'capitalist realism'.
