information: about

Charl Landvreugd is an artist, researcher and curator whose work explores cultural hybridity as a defining condition of contemporary Europe.

Growing up in Rotterdam during a period of intense migration, he became part of a multilingual, multi-heritage environment that shaped his understanding of belonging, citizenship and the visual expression of European identities. His practice advocates for concepts and vocabularies that emerge from these local, continental European contexts—languages capable of articulating the specific sensibilities of this region.

Working across a broad range of artistic disciplines, Landvreugd combines embodied knowledge with academic research to examine how ideas of becoming, community formation and diasporic presence manifest in the arts. He studied at Goldsmiths (BA), and as a Fulbright scholar at Columbia University (MA), and completed his PhD in Curating Contemporary Art at the Royal College of Art in London.

Landvreugd is currently Head of Research & Curatorial Practice at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and serves as an external tutor at several art academies.

He has held numerous advisory, supervisory and leadership roles in the Dutch cultural field, including positions with Het Nationale Theater, the Hartwig Art Foundation, the Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst, the Akademie van Kunsten, and the Raad voor Cultuur. He previously served as Head of Research in Visual Arts & Post-Contemporary Practices at the Masters Institute of Visual Cultures, AKV|St. Joost.

Landvreugd has been a research fellow at BAK – Basis voor Actuele Kunst, the Van Abbemuseum (Deviant Practice), and the Research Center for Material Culture. His writing has appeared in Open Arts Journal, Small Axe, ARC Magazine, Metropolis M, Stedelijk Studies, CBK Rotterdam, HYCIDE Magazine, Volkskrant, NRC Handelsblad, and many other international platforms.
