Group sculpture of students of the Gerrit Rietveld Academy. Together in a bandage mesh. The Gerrit Rietveld Academie originated in the 1924 merger of the Quellinus School of Arts and Crafts, the State School for Applied Arts and Crafts and the State Normal School for Drawing Teachers to form the Institute for Applied Arts Education, or the School for Applied Arts for short. From 1939 to 1960, the school was strongly influenced by the functionalist and socially critical ideas of De Stijl and Bauhaus, partly due to the role of socialist architect Mart Stam as director of the school. From the 1960s and especially in the 1970s, the role and influence of autonomous visual art and individual expression grew. These influences, in combination with an applied focus and a critical mentality, still largely determine the face of the academy. In 1967, the school moved to the current academy building, which was designed by the architect and furniture designer Gerrit Rietveld, who died in 1964, when construction had only just started. In 1968, when the school became part of higher vocational education and acquired the status of Academy of Fine Arts and Design, the name was changed to "Gerrit Rietveld Academy" in honour of Rietveld, who died shortly before.

"It is part of the photographer's job to look more intensely than most other people. It is the attitude of a child seeing the world for the first time or of a traveller visiting a foreign land."
Bill Brandt, English photographer (1904 - 1983)
