Het Nieuwe Instituut is lending the scale model of Jaap Bakema's 'Euromast' to the Rijksmuseum for the small presentation around Vilmos Huszár within the museum's permanent twentieth-century displays.

For four months from 19 May 2019, Het Nieuwe Instituut's programming will be investigating more-than-human knowledge. 100 years on from the foundation of Bauhaus, under the banner Neuhaus, we are opening a temporary academy taking visitors on an exploration of what it could mean for humanity to learn to experience the world without putting itself at the centre. What if humans could learn to think, observe and design led by the interests and possibilities of animals, plants, robots and microbes?

Spaces for Learning explored 150 years of experimentation and innovation in the design of educational environments using a broad selection of drawings and models from the collection.

Dirk van den Heuvel, head of the Jaap Bakema Study Centre, is taking part in the creative residency programme of the Department of Architecture at Monash Art Design & Architecture (MADA) in Melbourne, Australia.
