From the Netherlands to Cittadellarte, face to face with the director of ArtEZ’s bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts – VIDEO
Cittadellarte & ArtEZ Residency Programme: we talked to Marie Van Leeuwen, director of Arnhem Academy’s BEAR, and Johan Wagenaar, artist and (now retired) tutor in Social Engagement at the same school.

Since the first half of January, Fondazione Pistoletto has been ‘arti-vely’ hosting an artistic residency involving twelve Dutch students from Arnhem’s ArtEZ Academy, ten of whom are at their last year of a bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts. As mentioned in a previous article, all the participants are developing an individual research naturally contaminated by Cittadellarte and its spaces, and attending a programme of meetings organized by the UNIDEE office, with the tutoring of some of their professors. Last week, Marie Van Leeuwen, director of BEAR (ArtEZ’s bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts), and Johan Wagenaar, artist and former tutor in Social Engagement at the same school, joined the group for a few days: here are their video-interviews.
