ZOMERTANK 2023: ALL THAT WE HAVE HERE IS ALL THE WE’VE ALWAYS HAD

Opening >> 28 October 2023
Kessel-Lo, Leuven

SAVE THE DATE and join us for the opening in Kessel-Lo (Leuven), on Saturday, 28 October 2023!

This year Out of Sight and Werktank decided to resist the autumn blues and prolong the summer vibes with the collaboration on the next Zomertank 2023: ALL THAT WE HAVE HERE IS ALL THAT WE’VE ALWAYS HAD.

Dušica Dražić and Wim Janssen (Out of Sight) see Kessel-Lo as an archive of traces that expose the ongoing transition of the neighbourhood — from farm-land, to industrial and post-industrial site, into a speculative projection of the future-scape. The starting point is a landmark of this neighbourhood – the Koning Albert social housing building, a result of the post-war urban development of Kessel-Lo in 1950’s. Now empty, this building awaits its final demolition, symbolising the inevitable changes that our living environments continuously go through.

ALL THAT WE HAVE HERE IS ALL THAT WE’VE ALWAYS HAD looks at processes of modernisation that go hand in hand with scientific, technological and social innovations. It explores the link between arts, urbanism and architecture, and the possible social impacts that they can have on the way we form communities, live together and then go apart.

Notions of centre and periphery are brought to the foreground. Together with the invited artists and neighbours, we look at how these positions are continuously renegotiated and redefined. We are inviting you to join us in a walk from the exhibition at Domo to site-specific performances in Kessel-Lo, hosted by neighbours, Atelier Minnoye, Community Center Cassablanca, and Schools.

Stay tuned! The full list of artists and the program will be announced on 20 October 2023!

from 8 april to 29 april, the exhibition b-sides and rarities will take place at fred&ferry. for this exhibition, we invited all the artists at the gallery, including all the guest artists we have ever worked with or would like to collaborate with in the future. the result has become an energetic, dynamic and inspiring expo with a quantity of smaller works and ‘speciallekes'.

b-sides and rarities was a project initiated by lokaal 01 in 2009. it was a project that intended to introduce the public to the unpublished, the unrealised and the unrealisable works of visual artists. it offered an opportunity to get to know the other border, an image of that which one does not usually see.

what to expect: ideas, sketches, 'outtakes', maquettes; the first , second and/or later versions, the quasi b-sides, curiosities, snippets of reflections, reenactments, unpublished recordings, rare and reworked editions, live performances, radio recordings, contributions to theatre or film, collectors' pieces, works that for one reason or another were never brought to fruition, works that never reached a final stage of completion.

opening on saturday 8 april from 1pm to 6pm. the exhibition will remain on view until 29 april. the gallery is open thursday to saturday from 1pm to 6pm and 7/7 by appointment.
