Marjet Zwaans

Artist Marjet Zwaans organises her practice from the ideas of Ecological Economics, to arrange them into spatial installations, choir performances, and gatherings. Ecological Economics prioritises sustainable scale and redistribution of resources, over productivity and efficiency. Complementing, contributing, and thus mutually reinforcing is at the heart of tuning into collective practices. Moving in ways that each collaborator can contribute from their own experience without merging – a practice of correspondence.

Marjet Zwaans

is a place to discover Amsterdam’s dynamic and forward-thinking art scene.

#5 Dia di Lucha pa Libertat

Every year on the 1st of July we commemorate slavery and celebrate the abolition of slavery: Keti Koti. Since we believe that Keti Koti should be a national holiday, we are closed on the 1st of July. We asked Lydiënne Albertoe to design a graphic work for this particular occasion. The work is placed on the door of our Central Space and the windows of the Studio Space.
