De Appel is a centre for contemporary art, located in the heart of
Amsterdam. Over the 25 years of its existence it has been operating in an
international network of art centres, museums and other exhibition spaces.
In the projects and exhibitions that have been realised, as well as in
publications and public talks that were organised, the different ways and
contexts in which contemporary art can be presented have been a recurring
item for discussion and reflection.
At its present site, the third after De Appel's founding in 1975, five or
six exhibitions per year are being produced. These may be group
exhibitions or solo shows. Each exhibition is followed by a publication,
which is made in close collaboration with the artist(s) involved.

The following parts of the programme are considered to be of vital
importance:

-the opportunity to meet a large number of artists, curators, critics and
other professionals from the Netherlands and abroad in a very condensed
period of time, and having the chance to exchange ideas with them, often
in a very informal way

-the possibility to make several short excursions in Europe. During each
programme the destinations of these trips differ: this depends on the
international exhibitions that are worth visiting, the interests of the
participants of the course and the relevance of the journey with regards
-to the final project of that course

-the opportunity to realise a presentation as a group, for instance in the
form of an exhibition. The parameters given are: a specified budget and
the requirement that the presentation reflects the group's / participants'
view on developments in contemporary art. Considering the quality of the
proposals presented, one or a combination are chosen to be realised.

The participants in the programme pay a subscription fee of € 2500,-.
During the course De Appel pays for relevant travel costs (in the
Netherlands and abroad), hotel expenses and entrance fees to exhibitions
and museums. Costs for housing and living in Amsterdam are covered by the
participants themselves.

De Appel can not offer grants or scholarships.
