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. Portraits of a millionaire

    Stefan studied at Rietveld Academy, went to Cairo, and just got back to Amsterdam. He's just accepted to The Ateliers. He tells about a peculiar man he saw walking his dog. He followed him. On the big screen appear the portraits he made of this millionaire at this house. The man made his money with clowns noses and he resembles a clown a bit himself, watching into the camera half naked on a bed, hanging on a table or standing in his swimsuit with flip-flops.
