Moon Life Concept Store

A project initiated by visual artist Alicia Framis featuring products and concepts that represent future human life in space. Moon Life aims to find new ways of thinking about Earthly problems, and expand our thinking beyond existing modes and values such as recycling and re-enactments. The project aims to democratise the Moon and most importantly, open discussion about how we want to live in space, what things we will copy from life on Earth and what things we will leave behind.
Moon Life Concept Store opens the 17th of September, 18 hrs, Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 262, Amsterdam

A Common Dialect

An exhibition in Marres, Maastricht, that focuses on the idea of the collective. Within the project A Common Dialect, Marres examines the concept of the ‘school’ as a historical model for the self-organizing ability of artists. The research takes shape in the form of an exhibition, which includes reflections on the Tilburgse School, the Leipziger Schule and The Session. Alongside this exhibition, a group of alumni of the Academy of Fine Arts & Design Maastricht will attend a so-called summer school at Marres. During this period The Session will also work on location and produce session # 13 The Elemantary Session that will be presented in the end of the exhibition period.
