Artists in Conversation - Part II

Artists in Conversation is a series of broadcasts by DutchCulture in which we learn about cultural climates abroad. By offering artists the opportunity to engage in conversation with each other, we not only get to know the artists and their practices, but also the cultural sector of the environment they work in. Every edition of the series consists of a dialogue between an artist from the Netherlands and an artist from another country. Moreover, upcoming talents will be given the opportunity to present their work during the programme.

Otenba! Yancha! - online talk on Inclusivity and the Netherlands-Japan cultural cooperation.
On 10 December DutchCulture hosted together with the Dutch Embassy in Tokyo, in light of the NL-Kanto programme, an online talk focussed on the theme of inclusivity – one prominent topic in the cultural exchange between the Netherlands and Japan. By looking into three NL-Kanto projects: Super T market, The Fifth Season artist-in-residency in Fukuroda Hospital, and Free Haven / Common Space, we will guide the audience to review the broad spectrum, tenacity and sustainability in Dutch-Japanese cultural/creative collaborations in relation to the (social) subject of diversity and inclusion.

New Generations meet-up

On 1 October DutchCulture organised its first public New Generations meet-up at Lab 111. A diverse group of 18 young artists based in the Netherlands came to share their experiences working abroad so far, as well as their international ambitions for the future. The meet-up kicked off with a panel discussion spotlighting three guest speakers. Afterwards, the guest speakers and other attending artists were split up into smaller break-out sessions, to get to know each other better and talk about their personal experiences of working internationally. DutchCulture will be (co-)organising more events and programmes in the near future and continue to highlight stories from young artists within the theme #NewGen.

Facets of Tangier

In 2018, the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra started a visual study into the rapid developments in the city of Tangier in relation to the culture and identity of its residents. This resulted in a travelling exhibition, a publication, and public and educational programmes in both Morocco and the Netherlands between 2019-2021. The project has been concluded with the new publication Tangier: Facets of an Interzone, with photographers Imane Djamil (MA) and Rein Kooyman (NL) – focusing on the edges of this expanding city, where new high-rise buildings and mega-developments come up against the farms and villages of rural life. During Facets of Tangier in de Meervaart on 1 September, we reflected on the experiences with photographers, writers, architects, urbanists, designers and curators who were part of the project over the years.

DC TV Talks - Sustainability & internationalisation: an artistic dilemma or the perfect match?

In this pilot of DC TV Talks, DutchCulture and Boekmanstichting created a programme about the dimension of sustainability in international cultural cooperation. How can Dutch artists and cultural organisations become more eco-friendly whilst remaining active on the international stage? Should artists and cultural organisations travel physically to other countries or can they reach international audiences via live stream? And what is the true cost of these digital events? With performing arts specialist Jimmy-Pierre de Graaf (moderator), choreographer/performer Pauline Roelants (United Cowboys, Eindhoven) and visual eco-artist Thijs Biersteker.

Visitors programme museum professionals: Sharing Culture through Digital Means

During the pandemic, digital means have become essential for museums to get in touch with their public. Within the field of digitisation, there are numerous possibilities, for example, an Instagram exhibition such as the online queer art project Through the Window. At DutchCulture, we think it is vital to enable museum professionals to exchange ideas and knowledge to optimise digital solutions.

Podcast series on 50 years of international cultural policy

In collaboration with the Boekman Foundation, DutchCulture presents a series of three podcasts in which researchers and other experts discuss 50 years of Dutch international cultural policy. Not only do we look back on the past, but we also look towards future developments. (All podcasts are Dutch spoken)

In podcast #1: Retrospective Mirthe Frese speaks with researcher Toine Minnaert and writer Henk Pröpper about the beginning of Dutch international cultural policy, changes of the past few decennia and the present-day situation.

In podcast #2: Entangled Heritage historian and senior researcher at the Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies Esther Captain and artist and curator Richard Kofi talk about international heritage. How must we deal with the paradox of colonial heritage? Why is the term ‘shared heritage’ problematic? What are the perspectives from various academics, curators and artists on this matter?

In podcast #3 Culture for Everyone Conrad van Tiggelen, director Strategy and Branding at The Netherlands Board for Tourism & Conventions, and Yassine Boussaid, director of Theatre the Meervaart, speak about the economic advances and intrinsic value of international cultural exchange. An important question is: how do you engage visitor not only internationally, but also within a region or city?
