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. Lost & Found, een dissectie van het creatieve brein

    Een slordige 300 jaar geleden lagen er criminelen op de tafels van het Theatricum Anatomicum in de Waag. Deze anatomische lessen gebeurden niet alleen ter lering van de medicijnenstudent, ook de man in de straat kon dit bijwonen; een opengesneden torso had dezelfde amusementswaarde als de vrouw met de baard op de kermis.
