If invited for a physical interview at the KABK, you will be asked to take with you an extensive collection of work: many paintings, drawings, sketches, dummies, but also (documentation of) sculptures, videos, photos, etcetera. We are particularly interested in works that you have made from your own initiative. The selection committee will consist of members of teaching staff from the department, the head of the department, the coordinator, evt. an alumnus.

If invited for an online interview due to long distance traveling, we will send you instructions how to prepare for the online conversation before hand.
