COVER STORY PROVIDING A SHOWCASE FOR YOUNG MAKERS 8 Linda van der Vleuten, born in Nederweert in the province of Limburg, has lived in Rotterdam for 18 years. After studying graphic design at the School of Art & Design in Den Bosch and Breda, she decided to put down roots in Rotterdam. Then as now, landing a job at a good design studio wasn’t easy. Still too inexperienced to start her own business, Linda wound up working at a succession of agencies. There she learned a lot, but never felt quite at home. In 2007, Linda met Bruce Tsai-Meu-Chong, and in 2010 they opened a gallery together: Opperclaes. Neighbours offered the couple an old vacant ground-floor shop to use as a project space for three months. They crammed their calendar with projects and expos, setting up new openings nearly every week. In the end, they got to use the space for seven years, enabling them to build Opperclaes from the ground up. Rob Peetoom Rob YOU HOST EXHIBITIONS IN YOUR GALLERY ON CLAES DE VRIESLAAN AND TAKE ON A HAIR & MAKEUP VARIETY OF PROJECTS ON LOCATION. WHAT KINDS OF EXHIBITIONS AND PROJECTS ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? We ran Opperclaes gallery from 2010 to 2017. We noticed that, like us, many artists, designers and photographers had a hard time forging a path for themselves after art school. They can’t get a foot- Ruben Stam hold because they’re not known or experienced enough to get gallery shows or enough clients to make a living. We had this amazing space in the city and tried to offer a showcase for as many talent- ed people as possible – a first, for many. It was an experiment, but I’d say we did really well. And in those seven years we also built up a big network that’s still immensely valuable to us nowadays. In PHOTOGRAPHY 2010 we called it quits. It was time for a next step and we were increasingly keen to make work of our own. There were a growing number of requests and commissions coming from outside the gallery and we wanted to focus on those: to make our own work again, while still collaborating with the Romy Lange many artists and designers we got to know through the gallery. It’s still important to us to connect TEXT young designers and artists with clients, and we’re still curating all kinds of projects. R C D 9 M A G A Z I N “ We believe art E should be for everybody, not just for the elite. Artworks evoke emotion in everyone, they set something in motion.” COVER STORY 10 COVER STORY “RCD is a fertile place: there are lots of terrific things being developed and produced here.” BRUCE TSAI-MEU-CHONG IS YOUR PARTNER, BOTH IN ic things being developed and produced here.

  • DIRECTIEVERSLAG 2020 Inleiding Stichting Droom En Daad Werkt Aan
    DIRECTIEVERSLAG 2020 Inleiding Stichting Droom en Daad werkt aan het verfijnen van haar visie en vervullen van haar missie: een mooier en aantrekkelijker Rotterdam door te investeren in kunst en cultuur. Hierbij kijkt de Stichting met extra aandacht naar talentontwikkeling, de publieke ruimte en het revitaliseren van cultureel erfgoed. De activiteiten van Stichting Droom en Daad hebben in het jaar 2020 grotendeels in het teken gestaan van de uitbraak van de COVID-19 pandemie. Talentontwikkeling Op gebieden variërend van klassieke muziek tot hiphop en van architectuur tot beeldende kunst is er (jong) talent in Rotterdam. Stichting Droom en Daad wil een bijdrage leveren om dit talent tot wasdom te brengen. Dat doet Stichting Droom en Daad onder andere door bij te dragen aan het Batavierhuis, Big Idea, het RIDCC, de Heerenhuyskamerconcerten en het ICCR. Al deze -en meer- activiteiten zijn door de COVID-19 pandemie in aangepaste vorm doorgegaan of afgelast en waar mogelijk verschoven naar 2021. Mede als gevolg van de COVID-19 pandemie heeft de Stichting een aantal nieuwe en eenmalige initiatieven – op het gebied van talentontwikkeling – gesteund. Publieke ruimte De publieke ruimte draagt bij tot een prettig leefklimaat en een positieve beleving van de stad voor zowel bezoekers als bewoners. Eind 2020 heeft de Stichting twee beelden aangekocht die komend jaar in de Rotterdamse buitenruimte worden geplaatst. Revitaliseren Rotterdams cultureel erfgoed Stichting Droom en Daad zet zich in om het Rotterdamse culturele erfgoed te behouden en te revitaliseren. Niet door er een stolp overheen te plaatsen, maar door er opnieuw leven in te blazen. Het Batavierhuis, de Fenix en de Doopsgezinde kerk zijn aangekocht door de Stichting en hebben reeds of krijgen in de komende jaren een nieuwe bestemming.

  • Codarts Research Festival, That Will Take Place on Thursday 11 March 2021
    Dear reader, A wholehearted welcome to the fifth edition of the Codarts Research Festival, that will take place on Thursday 11 March 2021. Due to the continuing covid-19 pandemic this will be an online event, with live streamed presentations in ZOOM 1, and online presentations in ZOOM 2. This year's edition has a distinct RASL*) -flavor, as the theme is ‘Social engagement and the Arts.’ As the ‘traditional’ jobs in the arts are under increased pressure, and our society is faced by seemingly insurmountable problems, like climate change and pollution, but also social disintegration and loneliness, many artists feel the need to reposition themselves and look for ways to contribute. The covid-19 pandemic has made these problems even more acute. The Research Festival will address these issues, with (inter)national speakers from the world of dance, music and theater, next to a variety of research presentations from Codarts students and staff. And you are invited to caste your vote for the audience award during the annual Master research competition. *) RASL is the Rotterdam Arts and Science Lab. An intense collaboration between Codarts Rotterdam, Arts & Culture Studies (EUR), Erasmus University College (EUR) and Willem de Kooning Academy, with the aim to examine the relationship between the arts and society in a transdisciplinary way. If you haven’t done so already, we kindly request you to register for the Festival using this link: https://codarts.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIoc-ytpz0tGt2-wNg97GnMHAcBsoMGKw6A Upon registration you will receive a confirmation and the ZOOM link plus password that gives you access to the Festival on the day itself.
