This is a crucial CALL to support DANDELION EGHOSA (DAI, 2022), a hugely talented and brilliantly committed young non-binary visual activist from Nigeria, who arrived in the Netherlands in September 2020 to embark on a two-year study trajectory with the DAI. 

We are delighted and proud that Tirza Kater (DAI, 2018) has been appointed the new Artistic Director of Hotel Maria Kapel (alongside Business Director Annelien de Bruin). We commend the board of Mariakapel for choosing Tirza whose striking wit, warmth and curatorial intelligence and authenticity will bring both strength as well as a fresh breath of air to the city of Hoorn (and far beyond).

"Peanuts minus Schulz : Distributed Labor as a Compositional Practice" brings together a selection of comic strips home-brewed by over one thousand deskilled microworkers from twenty different countries commissioned through digital labor services.

Join Ilan at Printed Matter's Virtual Art Book Fair where he will be discussing his new book with scholar and international expert on radical forms of textual expression, Dr. Craig Dworkin and JBE publisher David Desrimais.
