Szkło x Sandberg Instituut
On the commission of Sandberg Institutre, we made a series wine glasses which were handed for stepping down Heads of Departments at the end of academic year in 2022. Sandberg Institute is the mother academy of Aleksandra where she encountered the glass crafstmenship for the first time and where Szkło has started.
As the postgraduate program of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie Amsterdam, the Sandberg Instituut offers Master's Programs in Fine Arts, Interior Architecture, and Design. The five main departments aim to deepen the practices of artists, designers and critics. In addition, the temporary programmes reflect on specific urgencies in society and the arts, and the hosted programmes focus on collaboration with other institutes. The course directors, who are prominent artists, designers, theorists and curators with international practices, invite tutors and guests who are able to challenge the students to critically reflect on their profession, their work and their progress.
