Exhibition
THE GO-BETWEEN

de Bijlmer

This year's Curatorial Training Programme has decided to leave the exhibition spaces of de Appel and realize "THE GO-BETWEEN", a series of artists' projects in the Bijlmer.

The Bijlmer, a garden city on the outskirts of Amsterdam, was built according to modernist ideals in the 1960's. Since then it is constantly transforming: ideologically, architectonically and socially. In the Bijlmer, every-day life goes in between the rigidly planned architecture and the foreseen life style: business buildings are used for religious gatherings, self-organized taxi-services provide an alternative income, and small businesses emerge in private apartments.
