What can a term like openness mean in art today, and in an internet society? Currently people regard the internet as an 'open' and free medium for the distribution of massive quantities of information, but at the same time politics and commerce meddle with it to an unbelievable degree. The internet has its boundaries, literally and figuratively, and is not infinite. | read more | | read more |

Location: Smart Project Space | Arie Biemondstraat 111 | 1054 PD Amsterdam | — This performance is brought to you on the occasion of the exhibition Yes, we're open. The exhibition, with its perhaps cynical sounding title, ran at NIMk from June 'till the end' and played off the fact that the institute was putting up the shutters. NIMk seized the chance to deal substantively with the subject of openness in art: as a theme, in form and as a property. Further, in keeping with the concept, NIMk itself has 'opened up' in different ways at different locations. Organizing this performance at another venue is therefore not just reminiscent of the space at the Keizersgracht, but also honours the new presentation institute NASA. | | 13 - 15 December 2012
