Vernissage: INTO THE VOID
Leerstellen als Werkzeug künstlerischer Erkenntnis

Mit: Leo Vroegindeweij, Ton Slits, Nathalie Brans, Tinka Pittoors

Tinka Pittoors, 1tinkthink roadkill, 2019, mixed techniques on paper.

Das IKOB lädt herzlich ein zur Vernissage der Ausstellung INTO THE VOID, mit Werken von Leo Vroegindeweij, Ton Slits, Nathalie Brans, Tinka Pittoors

Die Ausstellung “Into The Void” betrachtet die Leere, inspiriert durch ein Konzept von Jacques Lacan und Slavoj Žižek (the void), als produktiven Raum, der kritische Selbstreflexion und neue künstlerische Erkenntnisse ermöglicht. Künstler:innen navigieren von jeher durch eine innere, leere Wüste, um darauf etwas Sinnhaftes zu schaffen. Die Ausstellung sucht nach Kunstwerken, die eventuell sprichwörtlich „am Rand“ stehen, die eher ungewöhnlich oder besonders sind für die jeweiligen Künstler:innen, um sie – und damit die Besucher:innen – auf die Leerstellen in den jeweiligen Werken hinzuweisen.

Programm ab 15:00

Begrüßung durch Paul Falkenberg (Präsident des IKOB)

Einführung in die Ausstellung durch
Kurator und Direktor Frank-Thorsten Moll

Q-O2 news :: Soundwalk the extra mile


 workspace for experimental music and sound art

Soundwalk the extra mile

This might turn out to be a premature announcement of the start of a memorable Indian summer, but this Saturday’s weather looks ideal for trying out 2 new soundwalks created by Francesca Hawker and Margherita Brillada. Their walks can be experienced through the new soundwalking app Tracks, and will be launched upcoming Saturday from 14h to 18h. Stop by our HQ, meet Francesca and Margherita, and get all the necessary instructions to explore our neighbourhood. Bring your smartphone and headphones—if you don’t have a smartphone, please let us know via

And, if the forecast of the beautiful Indian summer doesn’t come true, or even if it does, there’s still more beauty below in this newsletter!

Soundwalks
21 September – 14h – 18h – @ Q-O2 – free
Margherita Brillada, Francesca Hawker

Duck Duck Eel by Francesca Hawker is an audio jaunt along the Brussels Canal that suggests 6 waterside listening breaks. The piece consists of 2 parts: part 1 can be done on foot, and part 2 is a bike / scooter ride, so bring a vehicle if you want to do both parts. The audio pieces feature readings of biographies of people who were or are into eels, collaged alongside recordings made in Flanders while visiting eel conservationists, as they counted and weighed hundreds of migrating eels. Underwater recordings of the canal also feature, which came out devoid of any eel noises. The frustration this inspires (and the question ‘where are the eels?’) has been shared by eel enthusiasts for millennia, who have never experienced the relief of witnessing the reproductive lives of the species they’re so into.

Whispers of the Unheard by Margherita Brillada offers a multi-faceted perspective on the community development of Molenbeek over the past years. By combining voices, field recordings, and found samples, listeners will gain insight into the neighbourhood’s history, structures, and community. Unveiling sounds of the past, listeners will be immersed in soundscapes that are now absent but once filled the neighbourhood. The audience will be guided by a mix of voices and testimonies from local residents and individuals involved in socio-cultural spaces, including Johan Leman, anthropologist and sociologist, president of the Brussels Immigration Museum; Fadel El Ouahabi working at De Vaartkapoen; and Père Etienne, priest at the Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church. The walk unfolds in a non-linear narrative, with voices at times overlapping, allowing listeners to experience their own version of the story through various narrative forms.

September Interjection: KINOPOLITICS – Abiba Coulibaly 

Abiba Coulibaly is a geographer and film curator with a particular interest in the unrealised militant potential of cinema, the intersection of ethics and aesthetics, and the visual narratives of Black, Muslim, and Francophone communities. Their projects Brixton Community Cinema and Atlas Cinema are experiments in what democratising access to cinema – as both space and medium – could look like.

Fall Season 2024 
at fluent

Calle Luis Hoyos Sainz 2, (int) 
39001, Santander,
Spain.

www.fluentfluent.org

”my language has cracked
is a slow, creaking fire
deadens my eyes, in
high, contorted concern
fuses to protein and rent (1)”.
 

fluent is pleased to announce the fall 2024 programme.

Devoted to a dramaturgy —as the aesthetic frame we provide ourselves to try, rehearse, fail and desire– of maintenance, this season continues considering the material and relational conditions that determine the appearance of love as a structural matter. Spanning the time and space of the exhibition format, experimental pedagogies and text–centered assemblies, the coming months posit practices that employ a grammar of dramaturgy at once hopeful, haptic, and politically eloquent.   

PRAXIS II:
Announcing participants.
The programme begins on September 18th.

How can a transitory, moving community gathered in a small Atlantic city contribute a shift in the social landscape within and beyond its direct context?

Providing an inspiring source of exchange, energy and engaged debate, we are pleased to announce the participants in the second edition of PRAXIS. The group composition has been carefully drafted to structure a diverse tapestry of practitioners –ranging from artists, choreographers, poets, geographers, curators, editors, activists, writers and trans–disciplinary makers–. The programme responds to the diverse realities, temporalities and social landscapes cutting across our shared worlds and futures. Aiming to unfold a common sense of affection, care and co–responsibility, the programme is both inclusive and responsive to wide–ranging profiles, attentive to transgenerational, professional and live backgrounds resonating in unison and including: Katherine Agard (Trinidad & Tobago, 1990), Gabi Aparicio (Santander, 2000), Che Applewhaite (UK, 1998), Miren Barrena (Donostia, San Sebastián, 1996), Toni Böckle (Germany, 1997), María Cuesta (Santander, 1999), Diana de la Cruz (Santander, 1991), Hampus Hoh (Sweden), Mina Heydari–Waite (UK, 1994), jœëlla kálâlã (Democratic Republic of Congo), Jean–François Krebs, Florine Lindner (Germany, 1987), Camila Malenchini (Argentina, 1990), Dani Méndez (Santander, 1996), Gerardo Rocha (México, 1992), Jara Roset (Madrid, 1998), Victor Ruiz Colomer (Barcelona, 1993), Kaiya Waerea (Aotoerea/New Zealand, 1996), Calvin Walds (EEUU,1990) and Amber Wright (Anaiwan/Australia, 1987).
PRAXIS is an intensive study programme running from September to December, 2024, under the directorship of Anne Boyer, Fred Moten & Stefano Harney, Andrea Rodrigo and Michael Marder. Reacting to current conditions of great narrative anxiety where detachment and hyper–mediation have replaced narrative structures; emotion and affectivity are at the forefront of this new phase of neoliberalism. Considering these challenges and the subsequent role of the arts and the humanities, PRAXIS aims to develop socially transformative prospects that repair the social realm from reduced listening and re–articulate aesthetics, and making processes. 

Reza Abdoh: Quotations from a Ruined City
Exhibition opening: Thursday, October 3th
October 4th –– December 30th

Quotations from a Ruined City, the first presentation in Spain on the work of late Iranian theater director, Reza Abdoh (1963–1995) is a case–study exhibition taking his last produced play to reflect on the violent political realities of his (and our) time. Over a career that spanned twelve years, Abdoh developed an aesthetic grammar where mythology, music clips, fairy tales, BDSM, rave culture, religion and avant–garde theatre merged, to speak eloquently about human degradation, genocidal politics (from the AIDS crisis to supremacism and war), structural segregation, oppression, racism and the institutions’ refusal to diversity.

On the week of its premiere at the L.A. festival, Quotations from a Ruined City was described as ”a violent attack on violence. A sort of apocalyptic follies, evening of song, dance, poetry, nudity and torture set in a world” that is still dying today.
Just before his death, Abdoh gave instructions that his plays never be performed again, thus making his work only available through videos, photographs, texts and other kind of documentation materials. On the ocassion of this exhibition, fluent will launch a publication centered on the exhibition’s core and original play Quotations from a Ruined City.
We are grateful to Daniel Mufson, whose commitment to Reza’s work and constant efforts in promoting and pollinating it, are at the core of this project. 

Un léxico molecular
Ongoing

In parallel to fluent’s exhibition programme, this autumn fluent books will host across multiple Wednesdays, Un léxico molecular, a reading group in which couple of texts, selected in collaboration with the exhibited artists, expand the exhibition programme. This pairing triggers echoes, frictions and connections, shaping a moment of encounter and discursive re-signification.

Artist talk Sun Sep 15, 4 PM

___________________________________________________________________________
 
Isabel Fredeus (°1991, Kapellen) has her fourth exhibition in the gallery. She works with installations, sculptures, video and interventions. Fredeus is mainly interested in materials that are elastic, manipulative and flexible. Within her artistic practice she tries to follow signs, investigate the origin of their attraction and search for alternative meanings. For the past two years, she has been researching the sculptural qualities of mycelium in collaboration with microbiologist Elise Elsacker. Mycelium is the thread network of fungi. The exhibition ‘A fungal affair’ presents active installations, sculptures and drawings that aspire an alternative approach to classical sculpture. The exhibition visualizes an artistic dialogue Fredeus has initiated with this living organism.

Hilde Overbergh (°1964, Leuven) has her first solo exhibition in the gallery. With an infectious open-mindedness, she allows herself to be taken in tow by the remnants, fabrics, things and materials she encounters around her, as well as by the range of possible activities in which these attributes allow themselves to be assembled, connected, stacked, interwoven and strung together into multiform constellations. The title of Overbergh‘s solo exhibition, Cheer the Sum and Celebrate the Parts, refers to the playful aspect of this oeuvre, to the experimental pleasure with which very diverse objects, materials or actions are combined. And also to the magic of the moment in which an unforeseen encounter between thing, material or action takes place.

Spaziergang durch Manheim mit Silke Schatz
Sonntag, 22.09.2024, 14 Uhr

Als Teil des Veranstaltungsprogramms der Ausstellung Terrestrische Perspektiven lädt die Künstlerin Silke Schatz am Sonntag, den 22.09.2024 zu einem gemeinsamen Spaziergang durch Manheim ein. Schatz beschäftigt sich mit den Transformationsprozessen entlang des rheinischen Braunkohlereviers. Dabei begleitet sie künstlerisch insbesondere das Verschwinden der Gemeinde Manheim als letzten Ort, der nach den Plänen der Landesregierung und des Energiekonzerns RWE für den Braunkohletagebau abgetragen werden soll (Stand Juli 2024). Im Rahmen des Projektes „manheim-calling.org“ erstellt Schatz seit 2021 einen Onlineindex der dortigen Pflanzen. Mit dem Ziel die Pflanzen, die vor Ort wachsen, zu dokumentieren und teilweise zu erhalten, versetzt Schatz sie an Kulturorte in der Umgebung und darüber hinaus. Bei ihren Feldstudien und Spaziergängen durch die verlassenen Areale und Gärten dokumentiert und beobachtet Schatz die Geschichten und das Leben der Menschen und Pflanzen von Manheim, spürt dem Verschwinden menschlicher Zivilisation nach und nimmt die entstehende natürliche Vegetation in den Blick, das Verhältnis von Kultur und Natur stehen dabei im Mittelpunkt ihrer Recherchen.

Anmeldung erwünscht per Email an Informationen zum Ablauf:
Die Anreise erfolgt individuell. Treffpunkt: Manheim Marktplatz, nahe der Kirche. Der Spaziergang dauert ca. 3 Stunden. Am Nachmittag wird es Kaffee und Kuchen geben. Bitte bringen Sie sich ausreichend Getränke mit. Als geeignete Kleidung sind ein Regen- oder Sonnenschutz (Kopfbedeckung), gutes Schuhwerk und lange Hosen zu empfehlen.

Walk through Manheim with Silke Schatz
Sunday, September 22, 2024, 2 pm

As part of the exhibition program of Terrestrial Perspectives, artist Silke Schatz will guide a walk through Manheim. Schatz explores the transformation processes in the Rhenish coalmining area, accompanying in particular the disappearance of Manheim, the last village according to the plans of the NRW state government and the energy company RWE, which is to be demolished for lignite mining (as of July 2024). As part of the project “manheim-calling.org,” Schatz began compiling an online index of the plants in this area in 2021. With the intention to study and preserve the plants growing there, Schatz relocates them to local cultural centers. The relationship between culture and nature is the focus of her research. During her walks and field studies in the abandoned village and its gardens, the artist also collects and observes the history and lives of the people and plants who once lived in Manheim, tracing the disappearance of human civilization and taking a look at the emerging natural vegetation.

Please register by email to Details on the walk:
Individual arrival. Meeting point: Manheim market square, near the church. The walk takes about 3 hours. Cake and coffee will be served in the afternoon. Please make sure to bring enough drinks for the walk. Suitable clothing includes rain or sun protection (headgear), good shoes and long pants.

Uitnodiging: Min Oh, Conversation Dance

Graag nodigen we je van harte uit voor Conversation Dance, een tentoonstelling en performance van Min Oh’s bestaande en nieuwe werken, samengesteld en geco-choreografeerd door Eugene Hannah Park. De tentoonstelling vindt plaats tussen 24 en 29 september, en concludeert met een performance op de laatste dag. Het concept van Conversation Dance kwam voort uit de drang om te weten hoe niet-hiërarchische coëxistentie werkt in multidisciplinaire kunst.
 
 
Conversation Dance Website kopieren small

Om een symbiotisch ecosysteem tot stand te brengen, is het noodzakelijk om elke deelnemer of elk materiaal en hun geschiedenis te begrijpen. Daarom is samenwerking in interdisciplinaire kunst een praktijk van kennisproductie rond verantwoordelijkheden, rechten en hiërarchieën, die in elke discipline anders zijn vastgesteld. Conversation Dance start een dialoog op dit kruispunt.

Het multidisciplinaire kunstwerk, dat zich gedurende een week ontvouwt in de tentoonstellingsruimte van de Appel, omvat dialogen die niet-hiërarchische relaties en talen onderzoekt die gebruikt worden in samenwerkingen tussen culturele werkers. Het publiek wordt uitgenodigd in een open en levende setting die het conventionele onderscheid tussen on-screen en off-screen, on stage en backstage, proces en resultaat, theorie en praktijk, en verschillende rollen en genres binnen een kunstwerk uitdaagt. Het project vertrekt vanuit Min Oh’s concept van simultaneïteit, dat zij definieert als het samenkomen van niet-hiërarchische zintuiglijke informatie. In de Appel presenteert ze een programma met openbare repetities met performers, interviews, partituren en een meerkanaals audiovisuele installatie.

De tentoonstelling is te bezoeken tussen 24 en 29 september, van 14:00 tot 20:00 uur.

 
 

Closing performance: Simultaneity, Conference

Op zondag 29 september sluit Min Oh’s tentoonstelling met de performance Simultaneity, Conference. De performance nodigt het publiek uit voor een open en live setting die het conventionele onderscheid tussen on-screen en off-screen, onstage en backstage, proces en resultaat, theorie en praktijk, en verschillende rollen en genres binnen een kunstwerk uitdaagt. In drie akten ontvouwen zich vragen en antwoorden over de samenwerking, en ook jij wordt onderdeel van dit gesprek. De dialoog is een performance, een installatie, een filmset en een deel van de video die later gemonteerd zal worden. We zullen actief luisteren en ons bewegen tussen notities uit het verleden, het heden en de toekomst.

Er zijn beperkte plaatsen voor deze voorstelling. Tickets zijn hier verkijgbaar.
De deuren gaan open om 14:45 uur, de performance begint om 15:00 uur. Na afloop van het programma is de tentoonstelling tot 20:00 uur geopend.

Tijdens de voorstelling worden foto- en filmopnames gemaakt. Het beeldmateriaal zal worden gebruikt voor toekomstige filmwerken waarin het publiek wordt afgebeeld.

 
 
Conversation Dance wordt ondersteund by AFK (Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst) en gesponsort door Korea Artist Prize Promotion Fund van SBS Foundation en National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea.

Avant que les plaintes/plantes ne se mettent toutes en pause de croissance,
j'ai senti une première odeur de feu de bois il y a quelques jours.
Soudainement, l'automne et le pull épais sous l'imperméable, alors que j'espérais
zoner encore un peu sur la plage d'Ostende à me cramer la pointe du nez et des épaules.
Il pleut, la lumière diminue ; si vos plantes d'intérieur ont mauvaise mine,
donnez-leur de cette eau qui tombe en laissant à votre fenêtre un seau ou un arrosoir.

En parlant de bois et d'eau, je vous conseille les tartes de Chaumont-Gistoux

Vernissage: INTO THE VOID
Leerstellen als Werkzeug künstlerischer Erkenntnis

© Nathalie Brans

Das IKOB lädt herzlich ein zur Vernissage der Ausstellung INTO THE VOID, mit Werken von Leo Vroegindeweij, Ton Slits, Nathalie Brans, Tinka Pittoors

Die Ausstellung “Into The Void” betrachtet die Leere, inspiriert durch ein Konzept von Jacques Lacan und Slavoj Žižek (the void), als produktiven Raum, der kritische Selbstreflexion und neue künstlerische Erkenntnisse ermöglicht. Künstler:innen navigieren von jeher durch eine innere, leere Wüste, um darauf etwas Sinnhaftes zu schaffen. Die Ausstellung sucht nach Kunstwerken, die eventuell sprichwörtlich „am Rand“ stehen, die eher ungewöhnlich oder besonders sind für die jeweiligen Künstler:innen, um sie – und damit die Besucher:innen – auf die Leerstellen in den jeweiligen Werken hinzuweisen.

Programm ab 15:00

Begrüßung durch Paul Falkenberg (Präsident des IKOB)

Einführung in die Ausstellung durch
Kurator und Direktor Frank-Thorsten Moll

In Zusammenarbeit mit Borderland Residencies bietet das IKOB – Museum für Zeitgenössische Kunst zum ersten Mal in seiner Geschichte eine Künstler:innenresidenz in Eupen an.

Ausgewählt wurde der Künstler Francisco Correia. Er wird drei Monate lang, von September bis November 2024, in Eupen leben und arbeiten. Francisco hebt in seiner Arbeit die Absurdität der unsichtbaren Systeme, die das tägliche Leben bestimmen, hervor. Arbeit, Wirtschaft und Aussterben (sowohl individuell als auch kollektiv) werden ins Reich der Fantasie verlegt, um Erzählungen zu schaffen, die sich an der Grenze zwischen Realität und Fiktion bewegen.

Personal Invitation I Off the Grid I Seasonal Opening – Autumn ’24

Personal Invitation I Off the Grid I Seasonal Opening – Autumn ’24

Tomorrow, September 12th, we kick off the new season at Off the Grid, with contributions by Denys Shantar, Hussein Shikha & Yasmina Reggad, Joseph Thabang Palframan, (  ) in the mountain and many others. Be our guest and celebrate the start of the rest of the year with us. Fresh drinks and hot borsjtsj included!

Programme

  • 18:00: Doors + drinks

  • 19:00: Opening presentation ‘God Save the Queers’ by Denys Shantar & artist talk in the context of Let’s Talk Leuven

  • 20:00: Inauguration of Flag #7: ‘Huriya, Huriya, Huriya, Huriya’ by Hussein Shikha with a Performative Guided Tour by Yasmina Reggad (start: Cas-co) & a fundraiser for Palestine

  • 20:30: Collective visit of the exhibition ‘Atomium and other lessons that came from Pointillism’

  • 21:00: Soft launch collective residency ‘How to Build a House: Windows and Doors’ by ( ) in the Mountain

  • 22:00: Introduction to the Masterclass ‘BÁRBARA and the ancient stories of the future’ by Sadrie & Désirée 0100

Solo Presentation & Artist Talk: ‘God Save the Queers’ – Denys Shantar

During his three-month resi­d­en­cy at Off the Grid, artist and curator Denys Shantar continued his ongoing research ‘God Save the Queers’ and col­lec­ted both on and offli­ne reli­gious ico­no­grap­hy, sto­ries and ephe­me­ra as sour­ces of inspiration. The presentation features amongst others a new monumental tapestry depicting St. Gall and St. John the Russian. By com­bi­ning the­se see­min­gly random saints, the artist aims at cre­a­ting his own ico­no­grap­hy and tell a per­so­nal queer sto­ry of immi­gra­ti­on. Denys will open up on his research during a talk in the context of Let’s Talk Leuven, a platform for artist talks co-organized by STUK, M Leuven, SLAC and Cas-co. After the opening, the presentation stays on view until the 22nd of September. 

Inauguration Flag #7: ‘Huriya, Huriya, Huriya, Huriya’ by Hussein Shikha & Yasmin Reggad

Hussein Shikha is a mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­na­ry artist, wri­ter and grap­hic desig­ner, wor­king with tra­di­ti­o­nal motifs and the rich heri­ta­ge of Southern Iraqi car­pet-making and tex­ti­le, often at the edge of art and design. Hussein takes this per­so­nal expe­rien­ce of navi­ga­ting dis­pla­ce­ment and dias­po­ric cul­tu­ral iden­ti­ty as a star­ting point. Invited to con­cei­ve a flag for 019 and Cas-co, the pie­ce blends the his­to­ry of ear­ly com­pu­ter tech­no­lo­gy and pixels with car­pet-making, Huriya mea­ning free­dom in ara­bic. At 20pm, and depar­ting from Cas-co, a Performative Guided Tour by curator and performer Yasmina Reggad will lead us towards the hoi­sting of the flag. Editions by Hussein will be sold to raise funds for a Palestinian family the artists are in touch with. 

Collective Visit of ‘The Atomium and other lessons that came from Pointillism’ by Joseph Thabang Palframan

Vaartstraat resident Joseph Thabang Palframan presents ‘The Atomium and other lessons that came from pointillism’, a set of four new paintings, in a previously unused storage space of Studio Minckelers (J.P. Minckelersstraat 139). The works play with the expectations and projections of (historical) memory, the tension between tourism and migration, and forms of affective nationalism.

Soft launch ‘How to Build a House: Windows and Doors’ by collective-in-residence ( ) in the Mountain

The evening proceeds with a performative foreshadowing of the programme ‘How to Build a House: Windows and Doors by ( ) in the Mountain, a col­lec­ti­ve of eight recent­ly gra­du­a­ted artists from various Dutch art aca­de­mies. As a group of inter­na­ti­o­nals, their prac­ti­ce explo­res the rea­li­ty of wor­king as an artist in a coun­try away from. How to find com­fort in each other’s com­pa­ny, and cre­a­te the con­di­ti­ons allo­wing for a com­mon cre­a­ti­ve pro­cess to ari­se, are among their key com­mit­ments. In the con­text of their resi­d­en­cy at Off the Grid, they depart from the question:  when we look out­si­de the struc­tu­re of a home, what are we loo­king for?

Introduction to the Masterclass ‘BÁRBARA and the ancient stories of the future’ by Sadrie & Désirée 0100

Last but not least, the eve­ning will cul­mi­na­te with a quirky and per­for­ma­ti­ve intro­duc­ti­on to a mas­ter­class devel­o­ped by artist duo Sadrie & Désirée 0100. This per­for­ma­ti­ve moment will give a first insight to the mas­ter­class, which will ful­ly expand on October 9th, invi­ting par­ti­ci­pants to join and explo­re alter­na­ti­ve ways of sto­ry­tel­ling together.

…this exhibition, MMCO and myself had always wanted to make it happen, we were talking about it often and finally we didn’t have the time.
Both artist brothers, together… How to imagine this exhibition today, now that he’s gone?

To not betray Marc or to betray him a tiny bit? To not handle his images, his words, or maybe to do so? And above all, to try to preserve his humor, his poetics, his mystery.  To play, indeed! And myself, how can I co-exist?

Finally, this exhibition ended up existing in 2018. At the same time, O.V. offered me to do something with the two brothers, MMCO+JFO… Time passed, then we talked about it again, and here we are, Marc’s series “ÊTRE”, …and me, ÊTRE” around “ÊTRE”… “L’expo qui n’a jamais eu lieu (suite)”

Jean-François Octave 2018-2024

– – –

JFO (Jean-François Octave) was born in 1955 in Arlon. He lives and works in Brussels.
He is a designer, painter and architect. After studying architecture at the Institut Saint-Luc and then at La Cambre, he began working for the magazine Soldes – Fin de serie, before making covers for Les Disques du Crépuscule / Factory Benelux and posters for Plan K concerts (Joy Division, Young Marble Giants, A Certain ratio, Tuxedomoon).
He started painting in the 1980s and became a figure of the belgian punk scene with his publications, fanzines and object-books.
He represented Belgium at the Venice Biennale in 1986. Since then he was also drawn to art in the public space and scenography.

MMCO (Marc Octave) was born in 1948 in Arlon and died in 2002 in Brussels. A discreet designer, even secret in certain respects, his very life seems an illustration of the life of an artist even though from the dawn of his career he enjoyed recognition and constant attention from the Belgian contemporary art world. This is evidenced by his numerous exhibitions, his publications and the impressive number of pieces acquired by the Ministry of the French Community, as well as by the National Bank, among others. 
Friend of the painters Filip Denis and Walter Swennen, who all were friends with Marcel Broodthaers during their apprenticeship years, MMCO traced his path, always truant, between popular imagery and unbridled poetry.

ongoing-> expositie “Where am I standing” / the What the flag?! Euregio edition at the Neuer Kunstverein Aachen (NAK)

This year’s What the Flag!? will kick off and will take place in the context of the Young Art Euregion exhibiton at  the NAK Neuer Aachener Kunstverein.

The flag has a long tradition of different uses and meanings. Flags are commonly used to transmit signals, to identify countries, regions or cities, or to visually demarcate a territory. Flags are also frequently used to represent political ideas and beliefs. The artists participating in the What the Flag!? project are asked to respond from their own work and vision of the medium flag. What the Flag!? is well-established in Heerlen, being organized each year by Greylight Projects. In the past few years the project was expanded once more, crossing borders and now including Very Contemporary’s art institutions as partners, each one presenting a flag, which was previously commissioned by another partner in the network and randomly assigned to yet another partner.

Now, shaking things up even more this year, all participating artists have to fulfil the rules of NAK and STAWAG’s Young Art Euregion series. Hence they cannot be older than 40 years and have to have a strong connection to the Euregion. Again, those artists are chosen by the Very Contemporary institutions, art organizations and museums in the Euregion. Whereas beforehand the flags would be directly exchanged between the institutions, NAK Neuer Aachener Kunstverein presents all flags grouped together in one exhibition, taking place at the Kunstverein.

After the exhibition at the NAK the flags will be traveling through the region. The artist’s flags will be handed over to the member institutions of the Very Contemporary network. Hence the exhibition gains a second life within the public space, connecting all of VC partners in the process, underlining the importance of art literally not knowing any boundaries or borders.

The Young Art Euregion series / What the Flag!? is supported by STAWAG‘s in order to support young artists in the Euregio. What the flag?! is a project initiated by Greylight Projects and hosted for three years by the Very Contemporary network.

ongoing-> expositie: Living apart togther

Artists Tianyi Zheng, Eliisa Loukola, Ida Leijting and Lena Longefay met in 2022 through the Apprentice/Master programme organised by Kunstpodium T. Kunstpodium T is a talent development organisation for beginning artists, located in Tilburg. Annually, they provide a programme in which budding artists are paired in groups with experienced artists. By creating a final exhibition, the artists can win the so-called ‘Jan Naaijkens Prize’, as part of which they get to put together an exhibition. This exhibition will be at Greylight Projects and is part of the Jan Naaijkens Prize they received for their work while participating in the Kunstpodium T programme.

Each of the artists will present recent works during the exhibition, from video to sculptures. These will show how, as a group, they carry out a dynamic investigation into intersections between nature, heritage, collectivity and friendship.

Their joint artist practice deals with issues of belonging and collaboration. That practice expresses itself incidentally as ‘the Department of Collective Collaboration’. This is a platform that seeks to challenge conventional perceptions of creative institutions and redefine the idea of collective creativity. They do this mainly from the brief in-between spaces created in the workplace.

Opening event

On 30 August, the opening event is at 18:00 for this exhibition, artist Lena Longefay will also host a small wine tasting at 19:00. Lena Longefay, a visual artist from the Beaujolais wine region in France, combines wine tasting with art in her performances. Her upcoming performance explores the tradition and reality of the Limburg wine landscape through wine tasting and artistic expressions.

A Fungal Affair

 
Artist talk Isabel Fredeus & Elise Elsacker Sun Sep 15, 2 PM

 

Hilde Overbergh

  Cheer the Sum and Celebrate the Parts

 
Artist talk Sun Sep 15, 4 PM

___________________________________________________________________________
 
Isabel Fredeus (°1991, Kapellen) has her fourth exhibition in the gallery. She works with installations, sculptures, video and interventions. Fredeus is mainly interested in materials that are elastic, manipulative and flexible. Within her artistic practice she tries to follow signs, investigate the origin of their attraction and search for alternative meanings. For the past two years, she has been researching the sculptural qualities of mycelium in collaboration with microbiologist Elise Elsacker. Mycelium is the thread network of fungi. The exhibition ‘A fungal affair’ presents active installations, sculptures and drawings that aspire an alternative approach to classical sculpture. The exhibition visualizes an artistic dialogue Fredeus has initiated with this living organism.

Hilde Overbergh (°1964, Leuven) has her first solo exhibition in the gallery. With an infectious open-mindedness, she allows herself to be taken in tow by the remnants, fabrics, things and materials she encounters around her, as well as by the range of possible activities in which these attributes allow themselves to be assembled, connected, stacked, interwoven and strung together into multiform constellations. The title of Overbergh‘s solo exhibition, Cheer the Sum and Celebrate the Parts, refers to the playful aspect of this oeuvre, to the experimental pleasure with which very diverse objects, materials or actions are combined. And also to the magic of the moment in which an unforeseen encounter between thing, material or action takes place.

CORNERED

September 12,
⏤ November, 2024

Louise Lawler, Tribute (swiped), 2022 / 2023, dye sublimation print on museum box

Focusing on installations in museums, galleries, and private collections, Louise Lawler investigates how we, as viewers, perceive art. Perception often deviates from intention; context is all-important and is reexamined, illuminated, and rendered more complex on various levels. Divided between the ground floor and first floor, CORNERED features two new large-scale in situ vinyl installations that engage in dialogue with other recent photographs.

Louise Lawler photographs not only the artworks themselves but also their surrounding spaces and details, such as labels, furniture, and lighting. By doing so, she explores the relationship between art, exhibition spaces and viewer, and, in CORNERED, particularly within the context of the gallery. Lawler offers a profound reflection on the art world, challenging traditional notions of art perception for all everyone concerned.

Assemblée Anonyme

⏤ November 2, 2024

Katinka Bock, Electric sisters 2, 2024, silver gelatin print

This exhibition can be seen as a large assemblage that reveals itself to the viewer in a fragmented and layered manner, like an urban landscape, featuring a series of black and white photographs, murals, and free-standing sculptures. The installation highlights her focus on the physical aspect of the body and on the inherent materiality of objects.

'Une assemblée’ ('an assembly') is a group of people gathered in the same place for a common purpose. Like all social constellations, they interact with each other and with time and space. Constructed from this principle, the exhibition can be perceived from any angle, with no definitive starting point, beginning, or end. Unclassifiable bronze and ceramic forms are suspended from the ceiling or scattered on the ground. Resembling apparent prostheses or parts of a construction kit, these minimal and enigmatic objects define the gallery space as a terrain with distinct focuses on the north, east, south, and west. 

Additionally, the exhibition features a new photo series depicting electricity poles in an anonymous rural context, reflecting the lines of arbitrage and desire within our society. The physical edges of the exhibition space are marked by linear ceramic elements, where the sculptures blend into the murals, suggesting a new, oblique alphabet.
