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.

Film: Lost & Found

Steve Korver

The evening that screens ‘Lost images and sounds’ takes place in a very special place: the Theatrum Anatomicum, in one of the turrets of De Waag on Nieuwmarkt. This singular location was where folks could come and watch the slicing and dicing of corpses –as immortalised in the Rembrandt painting ‘The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Tulp’.

Now you yourself can come to marvel at slices of forgotten celluloid and video history. Since 1997, the folks of Lost have asked their network of friends and artists to send tapes, CD-roms, films, video and slides that are dear to them but have never found their rightful place. Tonight is that place, where this evocative visual garbage is shown and where art and pulp meet. See www.lost.nl for more details – and how you can send in your own objects for the next Lost evening.
