Frictions Festival with Roxette Capriles

12.12.24, at SCHUNCK (NL)


Multidisciplinary artist Roxette Capriles has been invited by SCHUNCK Museum to visit the exhibition Andy Warhol: Vanitas and to program an edition of the Frictions festival inspired by this experience. On Thursday 12 December 2024, the central hall of SCHUNCK will transform into an underground club with the Pop-Up Klub (“shut up and dance!”). An eclectic DJ, freaky performers, and a host will get the audience moving, blurring the lines between performance and reality.

Book launch Ton Slits – Voll und ganz 1984-2024

13.12.24, 16h at IKOB (BE)


Ton Slits, who is represented in the IKOB collection with several works and is involved in the current exhibition project Into the Void as a curator, will hold an artist talk with director Frank-Thorsten Moll.
“With this lavish catalog, I am looking back fully and completely for the very first time on my artistic work and my life in the years from 1984 to 2024. In these past four decades, I have seemingly started from scratch day in and day out in my studio – a fiction, of course, because as a creative person, I always carry insights and achievements within me.” (Ton Slits)
