TIME IS A BOOK: 21.11.2009 » 20.11.2010
The last edition of the Ghent-based Timefestival is a book! Curators/artists Dirk Braeckman and Els Dietvorst asked roughly 50 artists to put the essence of their art down on paper. For (Art Centre) Buda, this book is not the end piece in a closed cycle. Lucas Coeman creates a thinking place, a temporary void, an installation in which Buda’s resident artists can elaborate on the issue. On 21/11, Boris Charmatz (one of the artists in the book), will ceremoniously open this permanently evolving temporary museum.
