Subbacultcha invited its community to make a collective encyclopaedia of the past year, with images and stories from their world. The result will be translated into a show in Room 1 from Thursday 5 May to Thursday 2 June.
Subbacultcha invited their members to make a collective encyclopaedia of the past 12 months through the ABC. They share a glimpse of that world in Room 1. The most cherished visual representations and the stories behind them will be presented. Each work is the representation of a self-chosen concept, made by their own eyes and hands. By sharing information, ideas and different perspectives, they form a comprehensive visual encyclopaedia.
An important point of attention for this presentation is accessibility. To participate in this project, you do not need to have had formal art training, never have exhibited or even created a physical work of art. They allow all creative people to participate with any image, thus opening up the museum space.
In an effort to provide even more opportunities for people with creative interests, they have partnered with S.M.A.K. and TAJO. The latter organisation is convinced that only those who are given opportunities can also seize them, and it offers young people future perspectives. All profits from the publication go to TAJO.
Reflect on Subbacultcha's encyclopaedic experience, where everyone with an image, artwork, pen or idea came together to share their take on the past year.
Take this visual encyclopedia home with you! You can buy The ABC of Subbacultcha publication in the S.M.A.K. bookshop!
Participants receive a publication on the opening night on 05 May. During the closing event on 02 June, it is also possible to take your print home!
