Visual Art & Power: Ideas Fair 2026
How can art be used to enact meaningful change in the city? Students of the BSc Global Arts, Culture and Politics course Visual Art & Power have identified power imbalances they see as urgent and relevant to the city of Amsterdam. At this Ideas Fair, they present posters proposing public art projects that engage with and respond to these uneven power dynamics.

Through the projects showcased at the Ideas Fair, students demonstrate how Amsterdam can be a site where art is used to address the global and local issues its inhabitants care about. An external jury, including representatives from the Amsterdam Municipality, will attend and evaluate the students’ final presentations. Visitors will also have the opportunity to vote for their favourite proposal.
