A New Dawn

24 May 2013
Muziekcentrum Enschede
Noorderhagen 27

I paint your house, you sing a song at my boyfriend’s birthday. The next door neighbour sets up a farm on the roof of his house. Artists sell gloves knitted by Granny – the proceeds are for an art project. Things can be different!

It's a new dawn

It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

(Nina Simone, Feeling Good)

On May 24 we are seriously getting to work on the future, without being naïve about it. From sustainable design to constructive engagement, and with sensitivity for each other, our surroundings and our artistic practice. And we’re gonna be hard core! New ways of working, implementing the newest technologies and getting back to basics too. It’s sure to be a success!

In collaboration with Timotheus Vermeulen (Radboud University) and Robin van den Akker (Erasmus University) ArtEZ studium generale presents an extraordinary line-up of internationally renowned speakers and artists – starting with keynote by Tobias Revell (futurist UK)  and a wake-up call by Laura van Dolron (stand-up philosopher NL). Also, a diverse range of workouts packed with powertalks, idea injections and sparkling new perspectives. Including names such as: Tod Machover (composer, inventor USA), Next Nature (Hendrik-Jan Grievink NL), Ulf Aminde (visual artist, theatre maker D), Nicole Beutler & Jessica Helbach (choreographer & costume designer NL), Rob Voerman (visual artist NL), Michiel Schwarz & Diana Krabbendam (sustainist thinkers & designers ),  Saskia van Drimmelen & Margreet Sweerts (fashion designers), John-Paul Flintoff (journalist, film maker, auteur UK), Charles Avery (visual artist, writer UK), Wunderbaum (actors collective NL), Willem van Schinkel (sociologist NL), Katja Gruijters (food designer NL) and many more. 

Finally, a cooling down with Timotheus Vermeulen & Robin van den Akker (culture philosophers).
