Exhibition
Developed during cross-institutional, international workshops organised by the Nieuwe Instituut, Gudskul, and arsitekturindonesia.org, the works draw on, and at times depart from, archival materials relating to Dutch (ex-colonial) architecture legacies and cultures that form part of the National Collection of Dutch Architecture and Urban Planning. Exploring multiple approaches to resituating colonial archives, the exhibition interweaves practices and perspectives that collectively seek to widen forms of archival availability, question the circulation of materials, and underscore digital solidarity.
