School of Missing Studies

Contributions by Liz Allan, Charles Esche, E. C. Feiss, Sarah Pierce, Bik Van der Pol, Laymert Garcia dos Santos, Eloise Sweetman, Paulo Tavares, Nato Thompson

The School of Missing Studies started in 2003 as an initiative of artists and architects who recognized “the missing” as a matter of urgency. Investigating what culture(s) laid the foundations for the loss we are experiencing from modernization and how this loss can talk back to us as a potential site of learning, the School of Missing Studies is calling for a space to turn existing knowledge against itself to affect our capacity to see things otherwise, to trust that seeing, and to set one’s own pedagogical terms.

 

Series
The Sandberg Instituut at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy, Amsterdam, offers master programs in fields of art and design. Working to align the institute with urgent contemporary topics, director Jurgen Bey has introduced a series of one-off, two-year master programs. The Sandberg Series is a record of these temporary programs as well as a platform for critical reflection on this educational model. Each volume delves into the insights and outcomes of the program it covers and provides space for engagement with a broader public.
