MU | De Witte Dame

MUtate
A relay farewell to The Witte Dame

After nearly sixteen years of MU in our location at De Witte Dame, it is time to move on. We have become young grownups at this location, and at our new location in Strijp S, we will MUtate further. But De Witte Dame deserves a special farewell, so during the last five months of MU |De Witte Dame we will show a special “relay” group exhibition .

For MUtate we invite five artists/artist collectives with roots and/or links to Eindhoven to take over the MU space, each for one month. From February to the end of June, they will each have the opportunity to make a big statement within which they seamlessly build upon each others works in space and time.
The audience is welcome to walk in and see how the installations are growing, and periodically there will be big parties. When exactly? That’s up in the air, floating around Facebook and is whispered on the MU website.

MUtate No.4 Stan Wannet

Dialogue Intérieur
Opening: Sunday May 4, 2 pm
Special program on Sunday May 25, 2 pm

Stan Wannet (1977), builds installations in which treated animal skins become striking figures. This ‘dead shells’ and the small machines hidden within them, allow Wannet’s installations to occupy a space in between life and lifelessness in an uncomfortable way. Dialogue Intérieur, specially made for Mutate #4, is an absurdist lab based on existing tests for cognitive psychological research and a philosophical mind game.
