The first year grads are three weeks into the semester in Düsseldorf! We’re enjoying the abundant studio time in our creative den. The studios are well lit and spacious, easily accessible with public transport. The studio kitchen and materials room are replete with tea and art supplies (and even a bike!) from the previous grads, which we greatly appreciate!

We’ve also been to visit the Düsseldorf K20 & K21 Museums with our professor & guide Jutta Haeckel. The K20 has an impressive permanent collection of iconic 20th century work, and the K21’s curation of their Grund und Boden (Land & Soil) was especially impactful, with multi-disciplinary work by artists including Ai Weiwei & Tadáskía.
