Rebecca Louise Antoinette Breuer (1972) lectures visual culture, media literacy, narrativity and film history at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute. She mastered in Philosophy - concentrating on art and culture in the texts of Kant, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche - at the University of Amsterdam and holds a Bachelor of Arts and Teaching from the Utrecht School of Arts.

Rebecca is involved in structuring the renewed course in Fashion and Branding at Amfi, and currently preparing a research programme about visual strategies in fashion marketing for the Knowledge Circle. Since she's the daughter of an Australian mother and a Dutch father, she's interested in an international view on fashion, it's environments and strategies. During her research assignment for the Knowledge Circle she will thus concentrate on the critical reading of marketing images and possibilities in an objective and global context. Within the research programme - that will be conducted in cooperation with Amfi students - she aims at providing a solid advise for sound marketing strategies for future fashion communications.
