Nest wants to invite all graduating students from the class of 2020 (BA/MA Fine Art) at all the Dutch art schools to submit an image of their graduation work for a city-wide exhibition in the public space of The Hague.
In a time in which it is decided from above which space we occupy in relation to each other, Nest researches the interpretation of space by means of Fred Sandback: The Measurement of Space.
‘If you would die today and reincarnate one generation later, in what world would you want to be born, regardless of where or who you are?’ This is the question posed to the artists of ‘A Fair Share of Utopia’ and inspired them to create new works for Nest and CBK Zuidoost.
The exhibition ‘A Fair Share of Utopia’ is accompanied by the publication ‘Wat Niet Is Maar Kan Zijn’, in which ten writers and nine artists explore the possibility of putting their own interests aside for a better world for future generations. They speculate about an unknown future of which they themselves are part.
What if you were to come back into the world today and everything is still possible? What would that world look like, how would people live together and what would your home look like? Be inspired by the exhibition in Nest and create a model of your dream home!

Nice workshop on Wednesday afternoon, especially for Verwende Nesten.
they say that history repeats itself
but history is only his story
you haven’t heard my story yet
my story is different from his story
my story is not part of history
because history repeats itself
but my story is endless it never repeats itself
why should it?
– Sun Ra
‘History is His Story’ is an international group exhibition that expands on the mythical world as described by the musician, poet and visionair, Sun Ra
To conclude the exhibition The bricks that build a home, writer and journalist Vamba Sherif will give a lecture on the theme of “feeling at home”.
(Nederlands) ‘Once we had the world backwards and forwards’ reflecteert op de status quo na het millennium, op de mens en zijn grote ambities en hoe klein de wereld is als je hem van veraf bekijkt.
Once we had the world backwards and forwards’ reflects on the status quo after the millennium, on man and his great ambitions and how small the world is if you look at it from afar. During Art Rotterdam Nest will show 10 artists in a two-hour compilation of video art and YouTube outside at the Van Nellefabriek.
On Sunday 27 January at 3 p.m., artists of the exhibition The bricks that build a home under moderation by Wim Manuhutu will talk about their motives, their work and how personal family stories, the themes identity, belonging and home play a role in this.
Can you actually consider things by themselves? Apart from frameworks, tunnel visions and juniper expectations? The reason for this question is ‘Even if it’s Jazz or the quiet storm’, an exhibition in Nest without the usual coordinating story or unifying theme. For Filosofie in Den Haag and Nest, the exhibition ‘Even if it’s Jazz or the Quiet Storm’ is reason enough to invite writer and philosopher Elize de Mul to give a lecture. She wonders what it brings us, this encounter with things in itself. What do they show us? The mystery? The world in itself?
Nice workshop on Wednesday afternoon, especially for Verwende Nesten.
(Nederlands) Proost, Santé, Cheers!
