From the 24th of September to the 3rd of October 2010 the Madness & Arts Festival will focus on the encounter of madness with arts. Is there a correlation between madness and arts? How do artists acknowledge madness and how does their work influence the way we think about people with psychological disturbances? For ten days, the festival explores these questions within a comprehensive multidisciplinary programme including theatre, dance, film, music, visual arts, literature and poetry. The public meeting (symposium) and the educational programme open up “madness” for discussion.
The gallery participates in this festival and will show work by Robin Waart.
