Review @ jitters.nl:

Op 7 september ga ik genieten van een kunstzinnig muzikale avond tijdens de eerste editie van het Onze Ambassade Festival 2019. In het fascinerende gebouw het West Museumkwartier, de voormalige Amerikaanse ambassade, zie ik vanavond voor het eerst de bands Shitcluster, Knalpot en Elektrovolt. Ik heb me laten vertellen dat het pand is ontworpen is door Marcel Breuer, een Bauhaus architect. Het is druk met jong publiek vanaf twintig jaar, waaronder vele kunstenaars en muzikanten. Ik heb er zin in.

Impressions of the opening of the exhibition by Stichting Maldoror in the Mimesia Gallery in Den Haag.

We’re proud to announce our summer exhibition, showcasing works by Anthony Blokdijk, Jan Duivenvoorden, Floris Duijvestein, Marie-claire van der Heijden, Sarina Missot and Victor van der Oever. This particular group of artists share a link with Stichting (foundation) Maldoror (The Hague, 1987).

In 2012 Stichting Maldoror celebrated its 25th birthday by travelling to Indonesia to trade 25 Dutch artworks for 25 Indonesian art works. In Yogyakarta, Maldoror chairman Anthony Blokdijk was invited to set up a project for children with Down Syndrome. As part of the funding, a website was created where friends of Maldoror would offer artworks for sale.

The exhibition ‘Stitching Maldoror’ is the finale of the project, with works created by the six artists who were presented on the website.

Mimesia Gallery is open every weekend in August from 12-6 pm, and on appointment via our website https://mimesia.gallery/contact.
The opening event on Friday evening August 5th will start at 7.30pm.

Salò Mentale Featuring Unit Moebius

A mysterious new label from The Hague, set up and run by Shitcluster and Unit Moebius (of Acidplanet and Bunker fame), who also team up for the first release, a twisted 50 minute trip though paranoid black sound scapes with industrial techno backdrops crossing the dimensional divides. Straight from The Hague’s deepest underground and guaranteed to blow your mind!
