The 10.000 euro show
Opening times

open thursday t/m sunday
16:00 - 02:00
every friday a new opening
first opening friday the ninth of june 21:00
Interests and work styles of artists can be quite similar, and artist often recognise their own fascinations in the work of other artists. The dutch art-subsidy culture is mainly focussed on differences between artsist, and what makes the artist or institution that will get subsidy unique.
This exhibition will focus on the possibilities and importance of synergy between artists.
Artists need collegue’s, not only to research a certain subject, but also to learn from eachothers mistakes. For this, a fear of similarities can work counter productive.
In each of the 4 weekends grouped works will be added to the exhibition, works that may or may not have an obvious connection. A similair interest, style, or technique will bond the works opening in the same weekend. Each new weekend will add another layer to the context the show can provide for the works.
The first weekend Peter Vink will show a new work for which he removed the ceiling of the kantine of the W139 in the Post CS building. Gijs Müller will show a new version of his work “Boombox Blowjob”. The similairities between these works will mainly be found in the clearly conceptual caracter of the works and in visual style.
More participating artists will be reveiled on http://w139.blogspot.com and the email list of the W139.
The second weekend will mainly focus on artists that work with repetativeness and emptiness. What techniques are used to differentiate the one estetical empty image from the other. Works on show by Katja Mater, Esther Kempf and newly collected works of PARK4DTV. More participating artists will be reveiled on http://w139.blogspot.com and the email list of the W139.
The third weekend will be about using modern techniques in art and how the artist tries to use imperfection to show effort, or a signature style. Including works of the artists Harm van den Dorpel and Deponk. More participating artists will be reveiled on http://w139.blogspot.com and the email list of the W139.
In the fourth weekend works will be shown that are made during the running time of the exhibition, and of artists from different diciplines working together. Included will be works by Anne de Vries, and Melanie Bonajo working together with Kim Hiortøy.
More participating artists will be reveiled on http://w139.blogspot.com and the email list of the W139.
The exhibition will be closed off by an anonimous art auction, organised by dead darlings, where the names of the participating artist will be known, but not which work at aution is theirs.
Each of the weekends films will be shown and lectures will be given around the theme of the particular weekend. More information about the films and lectures will be reveiled on http://w139.blogspot.com and the email list of the W139.
