Poetic Disasters
Club Guy & Roni
21-02-2008 - 22-02-2008 / 20:00
MU Theater

Poetic Disasters is inspired by chaos theory. It is a dance performance focused on hidden paths, nuances, the ‘sensitivity’ of things and the rules that lead from the unpredictable to the new. Poetic Disasters plays with destruction and creation of forms, ideas and matter. It deals with human need and the difficulty we have recovering from disaster.

The aim of the program 'Visibility Works', hosted by the Hungarian University of Fine Arts, is to encourage students, professors and the general public to think aloud and work together.

SURPLUS (lectures and workshop) - Re-examining strategies within cross-disciplinary art and design practices
20-02-2008 - 22-02-2008
Kitchen Budapest
20-02-2008 - 22-02-2008
Hungarian University of Fine Arts

The aim of this program is to discuss interdisciplinary cultural strategies; it focuses on concepts shared by art and design disciplines.
The program exposes one of the biggest voids in Hungarian cultural life—interdisciplinarity—which, on the contrary, makes for the basis of contemporary cultural practices in Holland. By examining particular cases on the Dutch and Hungarian scenes, Surplus questions the value systems embodied in cultural production.

Natwerk (My City: Amsterdam)
19-02-2008 - 23-02-2008
public places in Budapest

Natwerk is one of the most serious, yet one of the funniest know-how projects of the Dutch music culture. Frank De Ruwe and Coen van Rooij present their true rock-band with changing members from the table of a blue garbage-tranporting lorry. A mobile glam for all citizens of the city.

Wim Delvoye
16-02-2008 - 23-03-2008
Ernst Museum

Love it or hate it: Wim Delvoye, enfant terrible of the contemporary scene, makes art that demands notice. His provocative works, which make emphatic use of antagonisms, flout conventions and dogmas. His raw honesty and grotesque humour will make you laugh and wonder.

acb Contemporary Art Gallery

“Talking about painting is like talking about dreams.
All these images, happenings that are obvious and follow one another in an absolutely logical way, become shallow, even fake or simply incomprehensible once I start talking about them.”
