Thresholding is an exhibition that activates the threshold, taking a perspective from the inside out and from the outside in. The threshold, as a place where one cannot stay, and the act of thresholding, the suspension between places, is the site and activity involved here. Laying out lines and traces between outside to the inside, between the city and the art space, the social space of the café and the exhibition space, between public and private space, this exhibition ties, separates and bounces back and forth. Evolving over 6 weeks with works, temporary events and performances linking the art space to the social space of the city and of the ether of radio and television, thresholding will be registered in its course in a weekly appearing catalogue.

With special opening events:
Real Time Thresholding by Cilia Erens | Stalkshow performance of installation by Karen Lancel | Waiting Again, live installation by Danielle van Vree | Radio Threshold presents live acts from Personal Propaganda Unit, Boca Raton, Pirate Bart and Pirate Herrie plus surprise guests
