Opening 22 January, 16.00 - 18.00 hrs
Red A.i.R. is a project that combines long and short-term residencies, a series of events and a final presentation in an attempt to question the possibilities and role of art in relation to areas undergoing processes of urban transformation.
A selected group of artists and cultural practitioners are invited to reside in the former brothels of the Bergstraat and the Korsjespoortsteeg and answer, through their artistic and research practices, some of the following questions: What are today’s potentials for transitory structures and temporary occupations of place? How is it possible to make use of determined conditions of time and space to establish a reciprocal beneficial relation between artists and the hosting context? What is the mutual challenge set in motion for the public, as well as for the commissioners and neighbors, in an area under transformation?
By developing art works and activities during the course of the year, Red A.i.R. aims to provide a variety of concrete examples of the fluidity and complexity to the relationship between artists and place and artworks and different publics; as well as offer interesting points of reflection on the ongoing relation between the art practice and a sustainable socio-economical development.
January 22nd between 4 and 6pm will be the first introduction to the project with the guided tour of the artists’ studios and living spaces of the Bergstraat and the Korsjesporsteeg.
Long-term resident artists: Laurence Aëgerter, Mounira Al Solh, Alexis Blake, Egle Budvytyte, Francesca Grilli, Achim Lengerer, Ahmet Ögüt and Niels Vis.
Opening address: Singel 158 (corner Singel/Bergstraat)
Opening program: see the invitation included.
Red A.i.R. is curated by Angela Serino for RedligthArt Amsterdam which is organized by the City of Amsterdam, the housing corporation De Key/Principaal, and the art organizations Stedelijk Museum Bureau Amsterdam and Kunsternaars&CO.
