DO / REDO / UNDO - 50 YEARS OF VIDEO PERFORMANCE
May 8 - June 6, 2010
Opening: May 7,  6 pm

During the Kunstenfestivaldesarts, Wiels will present a panorama of documents of one the most recent movements in the arts. With a selection of 100 works, Do / Redo / Undo will provide a survey of 50 years of performance as captured on video, making it a research project as much as a traditional exhibition. Do / Redo / Undo is an artistic and scientific archive, a review of snapshots of some of the most influential happenings and performances of the past 50 years.

In collaboration with Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI), Argos / Center for Art and Media, Jeunesse et Arts plastiques, Kunstenfestivaldesarts.

REHABILITATION
May 29 - August 15, 2010
Opening: May 28, 6 pm

'Rehabilitation,' a term which refers to the renovation and the historical preservation of architecture in order to give it new life serves as a thematic red thread for this group exhibition that looks at how a generation young artists both confront and appropriate the legacy of utopian concepts of modernist architecture and design. The rehabilitated Blomme-building Wiels offers an ideal context in which to critically examine how modernism in architecture is a persistent reference for a number of artists born after the so-called 'death' of modernist architecture. The resulting exhibition includes sculptures, films, collages, architectural models and installations.

Participating artists: Leonor Antunes, Alexandra Leykauf, David Maljkovic, Manfred Pernice, Tobias Putrih, Falke Pisano, Pia Rönicke, Oscar Tuazon, Armando Andrade Tudela, Up (Koenraad Dedobbeleer, Kris Kimpe)

Curated by Dirk Snauwaert with Elena Filipovic
