New Moon on Monday
DNK @ Smart Project Space – 7 april 2008
It’s a quiet Monday night, a perfect night for the 2 Russian secret agents to go on their first assignment. Tonight our friends from DNK organize their first gig in their new-found home. From cool–but–shabby O301 they have moved to Smart Project Space — a promising new location in Amsterdams Old West. DNK evenings, consisting of short acts by different performers, sophisticated and entertaining at the same time, usually attract a bunch of nice friendly people. Let's see...

Secret agent Sokolova on her first assignment. -
Smart Project Space has a slightly morbid history, but in fact, who is afraid of it? Culture nowadays is like a contagious disease taking over places and infecting everybody. Even the dead coudn't escape.




In the meantime visitors start arriving. -
Artist and curator Irina Birger is coming straight from De Appel where she spent the previous night with Serge Onnen. The night was a prize to Irina and Serge as a perfect couple of the Gastarbeider Dating project. To our surprise, Irina looks quite sleepy. Was it indeed a romantic night?

Artist Serge Onnen looks extremely happy. -
-Was it so special, de Appel last night?
-Well... We didn't really get wild. I guess, the gallery space is too clinical for that. However, the bed was fantastic, it slept very well. We also enjoyed the champagne and the breakfast. And of course, the private view of the show was quite special.





Mike, do you know how it works? -
The concert is about to start, and Mike Ottink is helping Raed Yassin to plug in. Raed is a young talent from Lebanon, who has just started his residency in De Ateliers. We enjoyed his performance at Montevideo a week ago. Kompromat wishes Raed good luck with his artistic carriere in Amsterdam!




First mission accomplished. -
The secret agent can relax too. Thank God it's Monday!
But first she needs to make appointments for the next week's Kompromat.
