Welcome to the Lost & Found archive, featuring photographs and reports from our evenings as well as information about the participating artists. The artists’ websites are published here so they can be contacted directly. All flyers have been photographed; their materiality is visible, with corners, folds, and relief retaining their tactile quality on screen.This site takes the form of a growth model and behaves as a work in its own right: it is always, and never, finished. The site functions as an archive and is not updated regularly; if you wish for a change or update, you may submit a request.
Since 1997, over 200 sessions of stray images and sound have been organised. Artists, writers, scientists and musicians present work in progress, experiment or present work that doesn't fit into their oeuvre (yet). A specific and unique stage for diverse and hybrid works which don't fit comfortably into galleries or museums.

Een frisse decemberavond op de Nieuwmarkt, het voelde als vanouds.
3 graden, ik zag m'n adem in de lucht, maar dronk nog steeds wat kouds.
Wodka lime, it's about that time, should I go for another round?
Nee, daar WAAG ik mij niet aan, mijn glas is leeg dus op naar Lost & Found.
Daar stond ik dan in de rij, voor dat oude gebouw met een geschiedenis oh zo wreed.
Daar waar elke misdadiger met een over-mijn-lijk-mentaliteit werd ontleed.
Cosmetica, daar heb ik als man natuurlijk lak aan.
Totdat Nora het ridicule wist te verpakken in een geniale formule.
And believe me, she was leaving no nail polish brand behind.
Which one is the best, Nora, please MAKE UP your mind!
