Exchange Art for Art
Mediamatic's exhibition Ruilen will host the eleventh edition of the Fitax art trade fair. This is a great opportunity to view art that only lives in personal collections or hungry artists’ studios. Without spending money, participants can go home with fresh art. If you'd like to exchange your art on Sunday, please register here.
Food for Barbies
Over one hundred of Pet's Barbies and accessories will be directly exchanged for food this Sunday; the value of the food you bring will determine which barbies can take home with you. Jam, bread, and soup are great choices but any food that is preserved or easy to freeze is more than welcome. If Barbies were not your favourite, stay tuned as Pet trades his equally extensive Playmobil and LEGO collections in the upcoming weeks. An artist’s gotta eat!
