CUTS
FOR
PURPOSE

Cut For Purpose is the first project of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen’s Stadsredactie (City Editorial Board). This project, produced in collaboration with Stealth.[u]ltd, examines how urban dynamics can find their way into the museum space.

To facilitate this, a grid of larger than man-sized cardboard sheets fills the entire space of the Straatgalerij. Within this structure, spaces will be purpose-cut to house a variety of activities. After the nine weeks the remaining structure will represent an imprint of all the activities that have taken place.

The cardboard structurecreates a temporary condition in the Straatgalerij that invites exploration, participation and reflection. Its programming examines the interests and needs of the Stadsredactie, the artists, the museum and the city itself within the framework of this cardboard structure and consists of a variety
of activities including film screenings, solo interventions, video presentations and
gatherings. There will also be residencies for a writer, an artists’ initiative and a design studio.

Out of interest as to the needs, discussions and questions current in Rotterdam, the Stadsredactie has also issued an Open Call to artists, design-ers and theoreticians to react to the cardboard structure. Three of the respondents have been invited to make a contribution to Cut for Purpose and to implement their proposal in the Straatgalerij.

Cut for Purpose will end with a finissage on Saturday April 22 at which the results of the
project will be presented.

Wendelien van Oldenborgh (NL) was selected through the Open Call to take part in Cut for Purpose. In her work she observes processes in the public realm that display broader social conditions. For Cut for Purpose she will set up a live shoot within the cut-out spaces of the cardboard installation. Here the moment of presentation is subsumed within the moment of production. This moment takes the form of a meeting between several performers within Rotterdam’s musical community and particularly those voices that are not directly represented
in the museum. Without wishing to create a harmony of the various forms, which represent diverse lifestyles and distinct positions within the urban space, a soundtrack of friction and connection can be created. Texts, sounds and video images generated in this situation will be directly processed and projected, but also recorded to enable the production to proceed to the next stage in this process of filmmaking without a frame.

With: Paul Elstak, MR WIX, dj Fader, dj Niel, Guno Oosterling
