Rendez-vousTalk

John M Armleder in conversation with Bernard Blistène and Mai-Thu Perret

Tea Time #1

24/09/2020 — 25/09/2020

Drinking tea, artists talking to each other, friends talking amongst each other, including the public in the exchanges, creating a contact between art and everyday life. John M Armleder has been conceiving works of art, exhibitions and events as encounters ever since the 1960s. The work of art becomes both the object of an aesthetic experience and the occasion for a meeting and an exchange. Every day therefore, as part of the exhibition It Never Ends, Armleder talks, at tea time and in public, with his guests: artists, curators, friends and acquaintances, etc.

QUARANTEENS @ KANAL: COLLAGE TRUT!

20/02/2021 — 21/02/2021

John M Armleder was still very young (between 12 and 15 years old) when he joined up with a number of friends and, encouraged by their art teacher and rowing instructor, founded the artist collective Ecart. Ecart organised entertaining, creative and artistic sports and leisure activities and later developed into a bookshop, gallery and printing house, which printed collective artworks and publications on paper.

Tea Time #2

25/09/2020 — 26/09/2020

Rectangle, an independent art space in Brussels, has been committed since 2012, to researching different ways of showing and experiencing art. One particular example by the collective was the production of a series of exhibitions that gained notoriety via the rental of a billboard in the Saint-Gilles district and by turning this advertising space into the site for the exhibition. In parallel with It Never Ends, Rectangle invited John M Armleder to create an exhibition in a public space. The artist called it "Isocèle".
