In May-September 2019 Het Nieuwe Instituut and Willem de Kooning Academy present and invite you for:
Neuhaus-NeuLab Expo and Activities
From 19 May, during the course of four months, Het Nieuwe Instituut will host Neuhaus, a temporary and transdisciplinary academy for more-than-human knowledge. Neuhaus reacts to the current era's planetary burnout with a multifaceted curriculum in the spirit of the Bauhaus.
Within Neuhaus, the Willem de Kooning Academy has intensively collaborated with the Education Department of Het Nieuwe Instituut to facilitate a different learning environment: NeuLab.
Within Neulab visitors and students will be able to work with more than human knowledge. In a lab setting, you are able to explore and investigate your relationship with plants, animals, things, machines and AI. NeuLab is a do-it-yourself activity – a workspace, by doing and making the relationships are examined and experienced. Which experiments help us to reconstruct and re-imagine the world?
