MAY >> ANTWERP ART WEEKEND, DEFILE D'OBJETS & SOIREE DEFILE
40 talented artists exhibitioned at the Antwerp Art Weekend across two unique locations: Vanishing Past(s) at Archipel and NEXT at our new venue.
Vanishing Past(s) was a large-scale, site-specific art show inspired by the material and immaterial heritage of Antwerp North. NEXT at Archipel's new studio merged their artists and collectives with Atelier FAAR for a unique perspective of the new space.
And then there was a monster auction followed by a banger of a closing party: The Shed, once a pig auction hall, transformed into a catwalk of curated (art) objects from 5 years of Archipel residencies. People could bid on a cabinet of curiosities, then got wet by dancing until dawn at our farewell party.
