Show: Moving Images In Public Spaces
Moving Images In Public Spaces / Artist in Focus, May – June 2008
Caszuidas, Amsterdam
Curated by Jan Schuijren
CASZ– Contemporary Art Screen Zuidas is a stage dedicated to providing moving images from the visual arts to the public domain of the newly developed urban setting of Zuidas. Located on the Zuidplein in Amsterdam, CASZ presents a high quality selection of visual arts, showing a large selection of video and film works on a 40 m2 LED screen. The accompanying soundtrack is available through mobile phone (free of charge) or – during special events and openings – through the screen’s own built-in sound system.
Moving Images in Public Space Eighteen hours a day from 6 a.m. to midnight, an international selection of film and video works from established and emerging artists from all over the world intermingles with the public life on Zuidplein, addressing a mixed crowd of managers and office workers, students and academics as well as other inhabitants and users of the Zuidas. In addition, the bars and restaurants located on the ground floor of the Zuidplein buildings offer the perfect setting for letting go of your everyday concerns and opening yourself up to the enriching images that will evoke new perceptions of the Zuidas surroundings.
