The exhibition and the symposium are outcomes of the Exhibition Research Lab, an interdisciplinary course that offers students practical and theoretical knowledge and understanding of exhibition making in general, and of the potentialities of exhibition making in relation to their own artistic practice in particular. The course also welcomes students from Leiden University, for whom this is an opportunity to be matched with art students to collaborate with during the course. The Exhibition Research Lab is part of the Art Research Programme of the Lectorate Art Theory & Practice at the Royal Academy of Art (KABK) The Hague.
