This essay series attempts to stimulate the debate about the moral challenges that internationalisation confronts us with, both in the Netherlands and abroad, and in particular for Artist-in-Residencies (AIRs). The publication is a reflection on how the crisis is reconsidering our international ambitions, starting from a post-COVID society. Internationalisation is an inevitable reality, inherent to the art landscape. The current time calls for a critical reflection on major issues such as climate inequality, plurality and the Western-dominant canon. 

With contributions and critical insights by Jeanne van Heeswijk, Jack Segbars, Erik Hagoort, Pascal Gielen, Cecilia Bengtsson, Merlijn Twaalfhoven, Hicham Khalidi, reinaart vanhoe and Suzanne van der Beek. Thanks to Jan van Eyck Academie, Mondriaan Fonds, Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds en het Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst for their support.
