All about SUD 2010

Friday 11 June, at 5 PM in the auditorium of TENT./Witte de With, center for contemporary art, in Witte de Withstraat 50, Rotterdam.

Doual'art (www.doualart.org)
Doual'art will present the ambitions and projects for the SUD, Salon Urbain de Douala 2010, which is a tri-annual, urban international art manifestation in the quarters of Douala, the biggest port in western Africa. Topic of the SUD is aimed at the search for concrete urban problems and the cooperation between artists, communities, architects, urbanists, writers, designers, and curators. The theme of this year’s SUD is "water in context of the city" which has been the subject of preparatory research over the past three years.

RAW foundation (www.rawprojects.org)
The presentation of Doual'art is followed by a guest presentation by RAW foundation. In a wider collaboration named RAW Studios, the architects Calanne Moroney and Bart-Jan Hooft have been working in South Africa, investigating and experimenting on new ways of building. They will show some of their projects and experiments.

All About SUD was made possible with the support of Fonds BKVB, Mondriaan foundation, and TENT.CBK
