The Homeland Dinner, The Newspaper Dinner & The Secret Dinner

If fusion & food is the theme, move classes to mealtime! Last Monday, the second year students organized their first six-course (!) dinner of three with a ritual, memory or remarkable fact of their home country as starting point.

Marjan

With great sadness we say goodbye to Marjan Unger.

Marjan has been teaching at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie from 1982 till 1995 before becoming head of the Autonomous Design department of the Sandberg Institute.

With her strong dedication, critical reflection and contributions in writing, teaching and organising she played a significant role in the field of contemporary jewellery.

We will dearly miss her personality, strength, energy, critique, and humour.

Farewell Marjan.
