zandbank:



[EN] is an arts criticism platform rooted in Groningen, NL. We believe in slow reflection, in sustainable criticism, and the power of extensive contemplations and considerations - and wish to move away from "actuality" and rushed writings.

Currently, we are facilitating the production and spreading of art texts and entering several archives for republications.

[NL] is een kunst-kritiek-platform geworteld in Groningen, NL. We geloven in langzame reflectie, in duurzame kritiek, en de kracht van uitgebreide overpeinzingen en overwegingen - en wensen weg te bewegen van "actualiteiten" en gehaaste teksten.

Op het moment faciliteren wij de productie en verspreiding van kunst-discursieve teksten; Aan de andere kant duiken wij in de archieven voor herpublicaties.

Ongoing Open Call:
We are always interested in contributions or proposals.
At the moment, we are specifically interested in the following questions:

- What was the Groningen art scene like in the eighties and nineties?
- What roles do disability, illness and neurodiversity play in contemporary Dutch art?
- Is there such a thing as programmatic drawing, and what does this term afford?

If you have any ideas or questions, mail us at platform.zandbank[at]gmail.com
