Description

In a dynamic area characterised by drowned villages, wind turbines, rectilinear fields and meandering marches through nature, agriculture and (offshore) industry, Bierumer School offers artists space for production and presentation. Bierumer School is focused on experiment and development, where art asks questions and is not always looking for answers. A place for the imagination of the not immediately definable. An open and active refuge for artists of all disciplines.

Bierumer School is part of De Noordenaars, a platform for presentation institutions and art initiatives in the Northern Netherlands. De Noordenaars consists, among others, of Academie Minerva, Kunsthuis SYB, Media Art Friesland, Noorderlicht, SIGN and VHDG. The Noordenaars stand for experiment, development of talent and the production of new art, and are responsible, among other things, for the Artist in Space programme. This is an experimental talent programme developed and implemented by the members of De Noordaars. These 12 art institutes from the North of the Netherlands work together and create new opportunities for talent within the visual arts.

Outcome

During the work period of 3 months, the Bierumer School will be open at the weekends so that the work process can be followed by the public. In the 2nd month they expect a work presentation in progress. Each work period concludes with a final presentation and artist talk.
