Researcher / Scholar Residencies in Netherlands

Eye Artist and Scholar in Residence

Amsterdam, Netherlands

The Eye Artist and Scholar in Residence program at Eye Filmmuseum in Amsterdam invites artists and scholars to explore its vast collection of approximately 60,000 film titles, photos, posters, and archives, hosted at the Eye Collection Centre with access to research facilities, vaults, and ateliers. Participants develop projects leading to public presentations such as screenings, lectures, installations, or publications, with occasional open calls to diversify selections. Past residents have worked with themes like slapstick films and human behavior, culminating in exhibitions at Eye's project space.
