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.

  1. Quirijn

    We see a guy walking through the streets of Berlin. He writes down his notes, drinks coffee and he plays tennis against a wall. He tells he had been doing nothing for whole his life and that he even graduated at art academy, because a teacher presented his doing nothing as a work of art to the exam committee. He says he wakes up feeling the fullness and richness of live every day. The filmmaker tells how he met Quirijn and how he envies him indulging life. After the film, Pablo tells on the phone from Buenos Aires he is a bit of a Quirijn himself.
