The pavilion can be used for educational programs and other activities. The management of this is done by students under the guidance of Buro Rietveld. In September every year the curatorial team of the Pavilion changes through an open call.
The Rietveld pavilion was a student run project space of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie and the Sandberg Instituut before, and Public & Projects is relaunching it as such. The pavilion provides a platform for students to experiment, to discuss and to learn by making use of the autonomous space. The aim of the pavilion is to keep the space active and alive, and to bring students together to exchange ideas and to support them in collaborative projects.

The schedule for the month!
The project/group exhibition "It's a picturesque landscape, and it refuses to be the setting for your romantic comedy" wants to form a space of unlearning thoughts about land in the pavillion: thought a program consisting of exhibitions and events that challange dominant perspectives about land, geographies, maps and locations. The project seeks to emphasize different perspectives on the land and environment that we're a part of.
For the 8th edition of the Gerrit Rietveld Graphic Design educational program abroad, the graduating class of 2023 spent 6 weeks of the fall in Georgia, hosted by Timur Ahkmetov. The works on display in the month-long exhibition Reflections on the Fall, have been developed from the time we spent in the mountain village of Khevi and the city of Tbilisi.
Save the date: winter drinks are happening in the Pavilion on December 22, from 17:00.

The Rietveld Pavilion is a student run project space of The Gerrit Rietveld Academie and The Sandberg Instituut. The Pavilion provides a platform for students to experiment, to discuss and to learn by making use of the autonomous space. The aim of the Pavilion is to keep the space active and alive, and to bring students together to exchange ideas and to support them in collaborative projects.
For this school year we are searching for several student curators, one project for one month. For the months October 2022, November 2022 and January 2023.
The Pavilion is looking for a new team of two curators. Each student will receive a working-student contract of at least 2 hours a week for the duration of one school year. Keep in mind that to be able to get a contract you need to have a BSN.

Valley @ The Pavilion are happy to present the work in progress of Neeltje van Der Vlugt. Currently her practice is based around portals, windows, gateways, wormholes and other emotional spaces or tools that allow, point-out or remove passage. As we are all noticing a positive shift in the pace of time because of contexts slowly returning to their standard, Neeltje’s work offers an opportunity to fantasise about the directions time will flow to. Supported by a selection of musicians who comfortably roam the edges op the map when it comes to sound, we invite you to listen and observe together.

hi & hello fellow loves & lovers,
this is AGAIN the Glass Pavilion speaking; for y’all to not fall too deep into dark winter days we are excited to announce the OPEN CALL NR. 2 : we’d love to test the ground we for the first time wandered on in the last couple weeks
--impermeable domains
How to allude to the ghostly infrastructure? With the corporatization of higher education, there is a need to create more projects that imagine different, less centralized modes of studying, and which take a stand for the free sharing of knowledge, unrestricted by copyrights and contracts and other economic barriers. This projects aims to provide a virtual platform through which all students can share files they have collected over time from behind paywalls and from the misty corners of the online. A becoming-with in surprising relays; knowing people through the things they share, what they value as knowledge and what is discarded.
the pavilion becomes a beauty salon! omg beauty salon<3 looking red-pink-blue-green-yellow hot with your split ends gone and a sparkle in your smile really helps cheer up the mood when its raining outside

WE'RE LOOKING FOR A NEW GENERATION OF PAVILION CURATORS.
WE WANT SOMETHING FRESH, CRISPY, FUN, LET'S BRING BACK SOME LIFE TO THIS SPACE.
by Toni Brell
For a long time, stone has served as a symbol for nature stilled into mere resource, to be mined and put to use. Stone is supposed to exist quietly in the background of the green-screen landscape, as dead matter. ˢᵗᵒⁿᵉ ᵗᵉˡˡᶦⁿᵍ is a coming together for conversation, reading, writing and performances, exploring what stones hold and how stuff supposedly lingering in the background can help us understand the world around us.
Intended to spark thinking-with the architectural space of the pavilion, AWE initiated mainly material contemplation at first.
An exhibition by Jun Zhang, Luis Lecea Romera & Pam Virada
A very intimate and beautiful exhibition ‘Voices of Belarus’ will open on Monday at Rietveld Academie
Time Table:
„Thumbnails“ refer to a part of one of our fingers that some of us bite away in situations of distress while at the same time refering to the low-resolution preview images organized in a grid on web image-search tools like Google. High image resolution means bringing more pixels close enough together in one space, resulting in more information.
Presented by: TheOffice
Artist: Benjamin Schoonenberg
Curators: Mariana Jurado Rico, George Mazari
Graphic Design: Alex Federay
‘What is smaller than a sand?’
ATTENTION: site specific projects considering collectivity and collaboration regarding the limitations and impossibilities of gathering at this time.
“Dissidency” is an open call created for Sandberg and Rietveld students to challenge their methods and activate the pavilion as their working space. Repurpose it as a studio and receive a small office budget for a week. A lapse in corona time; at the end of the period you will have a piece, a process or a half conceived thought to show the schools community. The work must be made visible (in the space) for people passing by so that it can be seen from the outside.
A space for sharing experiences, needs and curiosities while we explore interdependent medical management. Visit the temporary open-source wet-lab to analyse your own DNA, measure your blood sugar or take a nap. You are invited to join us in questioning who has agency over our bodies.

The aftermath of the earthquake in Nepal in 2015, which is etched into the collective memory of everyone who was in the country, was the prime motive to consider this art project involving students from KU Art and Design, Lalitpur, Nepal and The Gerrit Rietveld Academy, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
"Somos una guerrilla marica, nuestro manifesto es el baile"
November 16-17-18
“(un)Knowing is resisting” is a three-day workshop and space of dance, resistance, and conversation between House Tupamaras(COL) and Typhoon Angels House of Angels (RTM). This initiative is supported by the student council, PUB, and Radio Rietveld.
Theoffice are the new curators of the Glass Pavilion, for the first time two Sandberg students oversee this space
Step into TheOffice, a microclimate of emptiness. This glass structure is haunted by the ghosts of collective projects past, cold canteen beers and togetherness. We exist in a strange new reality - the last ones at the party - how can the students of Sandberg and Rietveld embrace this spectre of community.
Do you want to be part of what's happening in the Pavilion this semester? Looking for a space for experimentation, exhibiting your project, sharing, gathering?
The Rietveld Pavilion is hosting an OPEN CALL DESK on the 16, 17, 20 September from 14:00.
The Rietveld Pavilion is looking for new people to be in charge of the space for the upcoming academic year. If you are interested and you are studying in either the Sandberg Instituut or Rietveld Academie then send an email to
Versus Eternity (Kani Marouf, student at current Temporary Programme Shadow Channel (2017-2019) and Michael Weber, current student at Main Department Studio for Immediate Spaces (2018-2020)) present exhibition:
I don’t know if you ever saw a black metal band live. It’s some sight to behold. Black metal shows are often a dark, inescapable and immersive experience, both in sound and image. The instruments sound harsh, fast and heavily distorted. The vocals are often shrieking, raw and unintelligible. Black metal bands shroud themselves in an air of mystery, often connected to lores of demons and other satanic entities. Corpse paint, long hair and black costumes are quite normal in the black metal discourse. It is truly something.
The Rietveld Pavilion is a work, event, project and exhibition space in a glass structure situated in front of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie.

The aftermath of the earthquake in Nepal in 2015, which is etched into the collective memory of everyone who was in the country, was the prime motive to consider this art project involving students from KU Art and Design, Lalitpur, Nepal and The Gerrit Rietveld Academy, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
The place where the Nepalese students were during that very moment, was the project’s starting point. ‘53 seconds 5 years later’ shows the result of a collaboration in pairs between 20 art students.
Redefining many layered emotions and consequences in this collaborative art project, it became an adventurous and complex path with many approaches; working in pairs, they reminisced, empathized, discussed and collaborated to respond to an experience that was deeply seated in personal and social conscience.
After nearly 5 weeks working together, we had a fantastic show over three floors in the Patan Museum in Lalitpur.
The plan was to bring this exhibition back to the Netherlands together with two Nepalese students. This exhibition was planned to be opened on the 25th of April, on the same date of the earthquake 5 years earlier. But due to the Corona crisis it was unfortunately impossible to do it this way. Now, 9 months after our return from Nepal, we are happy to present a small exhibition in the Rietveld Pavilion, Fred. Roeskesstraat 96, Amsterdam.
Enjoy the stories of these excellent student-couples with their projects:
Sumit Dangol - Claire Wymer
Amshad Sunuwar - Eva Mahhov
