The Invisible Exhibition – Holland Festival

Virtual visual art

South African visual artists have created virtual objects for The Invisible Exhibition. Using Tilt Brush, an app with which they ‘painted’ life-sized 3D artworks, they each made their own work for this joint, free augmented reality exhibition. The artists include Deborah Bell, Mbongeni Fakudze, Stephen Hobbs and Frederick Clarke. There are also several 360-degree films, which are experienced through the Oculus Go Virtual Headset, giving the viewer a 360-degree view. William Kentridge’s Love Songs From The Last Century will certainly be screened; it puts the viewer in a panoramic charcoal landscape, in which sentences, threatening silhouettes and strange objects appear and disappear.

Frascati programme associate artists

For two weeks Frascati theatre will be the home of associate artists William Kentridge and Faustin Linyekula. Alongside performances by themselves and artists who inspire them, there will be a lot of work from their studios.

These presentations show the importance of Kentridges The Centre for the Less Good Idea and Linyekula’s Studios Kabako, and how they function. There will be a unique and exciting programme in which the boundaries between various artforms disappear. Also, we will be organising a series of debates, called The Welcome Table, in which themes from the presentations (that are also topical in the Netherlands) are discussed.

Kentridge and Linyekula use The Centre For The Less Good Idea and Studios Kabako to give both young and more experienced (performing) artists the space, opportunities and inspiration to work on their oeuvre. For Amsterdam they selected work using different criteria: Linyekula is giving two young artists the opportunity to test new work on Dutch audiences as works-in-progress; Kentridge selected presentations from all the seasons thus far been organised at The Centre.

Choose one or more parts of the programme and be surprised by performances that not only add a new perspective to Kentridge and Linyekula’s artistry, but also tell new stories – from intensely political reflections, exceptional childhood memories and attempts to create new myths for a new era.
