A WORD OR TWO
A WORD OR TWO is an exhibition by From Me To You Space and Editions. It spotlights four artists/publishers whose practices engage with words, language, and writing. Each day, we will shift focus to a different approach, highlighting the distinctive ways these artists explore and reinterpret the relationships between language and artistic expression.
BANDERGEWILDEN
Lecture-performance by Jeroen Peeters
Thursday 29/05 continuously
with readings at 3 pm and 7:30 pm
How do artists work? How do they speak about their practice? In search of an answer I started gleaning gestures and attitudes from practices of writing, editing, publishing, but also from related practices in ethnography, dramaturgy and translation. This growing library of practices by now constitutes the Bandergewilden notebooks.

READING IS WRITING
by Annabelle Binnerts
Thursday 29/05 - Sunday 31/05
continuously
By treating the space’s windows as a transparent interface, Annabelle Binnerts explores the relationship between reader and writer, each residing on opposite sides of the glass. This duality draws attention to the “double-sidedness” of the work, transforming it into a subtle conversation unfolding through the transparent barrier.
