NO RUSH BUT
NO RUSH BUT… LIMITED EDITION
Exhibition and book launch by bring your own book
@ Plan B, Amsterdam

Organised by Susu LeeJordi de Vetten and Augustinas Milkus

Open 14:00 – 17:00

"The world is full of texts, more or less interesting; I do not wish to add any more...What is seen now but will never be seen again?" From this installation, a publication emerged, compiling the remaining images and texts. This publication marks the starting point of their upcoming exhibition, No rush but… Limited Edition. While abstract in essence, the original vinyl stickers still resonate, reminding the viewer of the brief nature of public content and the questions of navigating authorship in the act of publishing. How does one publish another’s work?

LEAVING SPACE
Exhibition
Broedplaats LELY, Amsterdam 

The exhibition engages with the idea of ‘leaving space’—both vacating a physical place and creating room for new ideas or people. It encapsulates both the struggle of being displaced, the opportunities that the Lely has offered its habitants/frequenters and the possibilities the generous gesture of letting others enter can bring. Themes include gentrification, precarity, community, and transformation, all to be experienced at this exhibition within the very spaces that nurtured these creatives.

By appointment at 19:00

The Presskuchen tour offers artists the opportunity to develop structures and networks across various cities. It uses the gesture of staging and the structure of the stage itself, highlighting and doubling the staged nature of exhibiting.

Afroditi Terzi
UNBOUND
Exhibition by Afroditi Terzi

@ Galerie Fons Welters, Amsterdam 

In this series, the process involves sewing the textile, in a way that resembles automatic writing; then painting. The canvas remains unprimed to emphasise its tactility.

The materiality and concreteness here forms a parallel to delve into the physicality of relationships and connections; their tensions, their folds, their layers, their becomings.

25 & 26 OCT
