de Appel arts centre A three-part program comprising two performances and an exhibition in a collaboration between de Appel and Kunstverein, Amsterdam.

Part one
“three scenes”
Performance
took place on 23 Sept. 2009 in Kunstverein, Amsterdam

Part two
“grey-blue grain”
Exhibition
12 Dec. 2009 – 31 Jan. 2010
Location: Kunstverein, Ruyschstraat 4 III..., Amsterdam

A selection of projects from 2007-09 that deal directly with the abstraction and instrumentalisation of language and image through sculpture and wall-based work.

Part three
“BAND”
Performance/film screening
13 and 14 Dec. 2009, 8.30 PM
Location: De Brakke Grond (Rode Zaal), Nes 45, Amsterdam

Adam Pendleton’s BAND is a form and content refashioning of Jean-Luc Godard’s “Sympathy for the Devil”. Made in the aftermath of May ’68, the original film helped mark Godard’s break from his Nouvelle Vague period into a more committed engagement with the politics and class struggles of the time.
BAND is unfolding in stages, it began at the Toronto International Film Festival with a rehearsal/film-shoot and live concert by the indie-rock/post-punk band Deerhoof. The Amsterdam performance/film screening will present the first edit of footage from Toronto with work-in-progress sequences from texts based on the work of authors explicitly related to Godard’s film, such as black power activist Eldridge Cleaver; or tangentially related, such as Gertrude Stein. The final stage of BAND will occur as a solo-exhibition at The Kitchen, New York in Fall 2010.

Co-producers: Kunstverein, Amsterdam, Wayne Baerwaldt, Alberta College of Art + Design, Calgary; Noah Cowan, Toronto International Film Festival, Future Projections; with additional support from Rashida Bumbray, The Kitchen, New York.

de Appel arts centre de Appel presents i.c.w. STUK Kunstencentrum: "The manifold (after) lives of performance" A multidisciplinary symposium that will look into the (im)possibilities of recording, documenting and archiving of performance. 13 November Leuven, 14 (& 15) November Amsterdam.

de Appel arts centre

de Appel arts centre Co-production of de Appel with STUK Kunstencentrum (Leuven).

Since 2006, de Appel has been presenting at regular intervals, under the heading “Situations”, performances by diverse makers - from visual artists to choreographers and writers - who are investigating the notion of the ‘live moment’. In 2009, a year in which ...de Appel temporarily lacks a home base and is pursuing a ‘disembodied’ programme, a lot of our performances are taking place under the auspices of an institutional alliance with Theater Frascati. With the two-day multidisciplinary symposium “The manifold (after) lives of performance”, which will present the viewpoint of the artist as well as the theorist, de Appel, Frascati and partner STUK Kunstencentrum will be contributing to the creation of knowledge concerning the many current ways in which performance is handed down, preserved and mediated ‘after the fact’.

The time-bound moment of a performance conflicts with the desire to keep these sorts of works of art ‘alive’ afterwards, to collect them and to present them to spectators who were not present at the original moment. How can artists and organisations present ephemeral live actions once again after the short-lived momentum of the original production in a meaningful way?

The two day symposium will look into the (im)possibilities of recording, documenting and archiving, as well as the re-enactment, activating or recontextualisation of actions, happenings and performances. On the basis of examples taken from the practice (case- studies) the symposium will contribute to the theoretical and practical concern with the (after) lives of performances.

With contributions by: Peter Baren & Ondra Libal, Dirk Braeckman & Els Dietvorst, Marie Cool & Fabio Balducci, Serge Delbruyère, Sophie Delpeux, Annie Fletcher, Myriam van Imschoot, Inside Movement Knowledge, Eric Mangion, Eva Meyer- Hermann, Sarah Vanhee, David Weber Krebbs & Alexander Schellow amongst others.

de Appel arts centre 'New ideas need old buildings' - Jane Jacobs

De Appel is pleased to announce that, commencing in February 2010, it will be making use of a new exhibition space at Eerste Jacob van Campenstraat 59 (tram 3, 12 or 25, stop Ferdinand Bolstraat). This will mark the end of de Appel’s temporary ‘disembodiment’ in 2009 - a yea...r in which the regular, additional programme of performances, projects, lectures, ‘informances’ and publications came to the fore in various locations in the city, with the Frascati and Stadsschouwburg theatres as institutional partners. This emphasis on text, (spoken) word and gesture will shift in 2010 back again to object and image with a series of exhibitions. De Appel’s intrinsic line and its ambition to remain progressive and ‘unusual’ on the basis of its long past history is thus being continued.
Having been housed on the Brouwersgracht, Prinseneiland and the Nieuwe Spiegelstraat, de Appel has manifested itself in very different ways since 1975. Now, through this relocation, de Appel is cropping up again at an unexpected spot in Amsterdam. The building on the Eerste Jacob van Campenstraat was built at the end of the nineteenth century as a ‘3rd class’ public primary school for boys, in what was then the rapidly burgeoning district known as De Pijp on the edge of Amsterdam. After that it had different functions, from music library to a training school for midwives. Because of its historical character and its central location in a striking and lively ambiance, a stone’s throw from the Museumplein and de Ateliers, it offers de Appel an exquisite place for resuming its exhibition programme in full swing.
A brief pick from what will be presented in 2010. In February 2010 we will be opening with the group exhibition “For the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat that isn’t there”, produced in collaboration with the Saint Louis Museum (Saint Louis, USA), ICA (London) and Kulturgest (Lisbon), which focuses on the ‘enigma’ of contemporary art and presents ‘non-understanding’ as a positive attitude. Among the artists included are Marcel Broodthaers, Eric Duyckaerts, Peter Fischli & David Weiss and Frances Stark. With solo exhibitions by Rod Bianco/Bjarne Melgaard (AUS/USA), Valérie Mannaerts (BE), Matt Mullican (USA), Mika Rottenberg (ARG/USA) and Emily Wardill (GB), de Appel will, as in previous years, be exploring the idiolects, personal mythologies and private preoccupations of a number of young and more established artists.
The exhibition space on the Eerste Jacob van Campenstraat, from now on named ‘de Appel-Boys School’, will be used as de Appel's exhibition space during 2010 and 2011. At the end of 2011 de Appel will permanently 'settle' at 142 Prins Hendrikkade in Amsterdam, in a building traditionally known as the Zeemanshoop. Officially commissioned by the City of Amsterdam - the building on the Prins Hendrikkade is being renovated. Architectural offices were assigned in August this year and a selection was made in September. The winning office is the Nieuwe Generatie (www.denieuwegeneratie.nu) in collaboration with ADP (www.adp-architecten.nl), an excellent combination of enthusiasm and expertise. The definitive design and the building application should be ready before the end of the year.
