Rietveld Review(ed) is part of the Graduation Show’s side programme.
2024
In 2024, the academy organised a fourth edition of Rietveld Review(ed) as part of the Graduation Show’s side programming. An independent, external committee was asked to reflect on the Graduation Show as a whole, and to identify current tendencies and themes within the exhibition. The reflections and observations were processed and turned into a reflection report which is made available here online.
Committee members

> Clementine Edwards is an artist working between sculpture and writing. Clementine’s practice engages with craft, climate crisis, gender and how lived experience, including trauma, narrates meaning-making.
> Yana Foque is a Belgian curator with a background in (graphic) design, whose main interest lies in exploring the notion of co-authorship, the relationship between artists and their assistants/ partners and the social/political/historical structures that shape these collaborations. She holds the position of Executive Director and Chief Curator of Kunstverein (Amsterdam), its affiliated publishing house and its franchise.
> Lisa Konno is an artist and (fashion) designer. Her work travels freely between different fields, from documentary, fashion and ceramics, to performance and more. Recurring themes in her work are cultural identity, sustainability and activism.
Video portraits
The Rietveld Academie also presents video portraits of the Rietveld Review(ed) artists and their projects. With these portraits, the art academy highlights and celebrates remarkable art projects by the next generation of artists. Each video portrait was made in close collaboration with the artist to give insight into their way of thinking and working. Take a look at the portraits here (scroll down).
