de Appel timeline: 40+ years of risks, collection (unintended)

De Appel timeline: 40+ years of risks is an idiosyncratic and celebratory overview of the more than 2000 projects realised, initiated, hosted and programmed at De Appel. This extensive summary engenders a new phase at the organisation by reflecting on what has taken place in the past. It is an inevitable end that marks a new beginning. De Appel timeline: 40+ years of risks is the last project to take place at the current Prins Hendrikkade location. Ongoing project to be bound at a later date.
