NEW SCIENCE GALLERY DUBLIN SHOW OPEN LABS IS PART EXHIBITION, PART EXPERIMENT – SHOWCASING DIY CULTURE ACROSS DESIGN, RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGY AND ACTIVISM.

OPEN LABS is a Science Gallery Dublin first, a group exhibition curated by the Office of Life + Art, featuring work from Art Science Bangalore (IN), Bioart Society (FI), Hackers & Designers (NL) and Public Lab (US), as well as Science Gallery Dublin’s OPENSHOP (IRE). These labs celebrate collective curiosity and challenge the expectations of what a lab can do and why it should exist.

This exhibition showcases surprising projects and experiments from around the world that can help us imagine the many directions independent creative research can take in the future. Artists and designers are accessing and hacking emerging technologies, or co-creating technologies that are inspired by their political convictions, personal obsessions or just a sense of fun and wonder.

This is not a finished product, it is a starting point. It is looking at how the tools we have can be used in new and different ways to potentially improve or unearth new truths about the world we live in. We are in Beta-mode, experimenting, showing and telling, with a goal of creating new ideas and new solutions. Be a part of the process, probe and provoke with us, get in to give out at our one-stop OPENSHOP for Thinkshops, Workshops & Talkshops. We’re open, are you?

OPEN LABS was open at Science Gallery at Trinity College Dublin from 15.03.19 until 02.06.19

-Leading up to Printing Plant Art Book Fair 2019, Looiersgracht 60 and Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten collaborated in a series of four special events prior to [[Printing Plant Art Book Fair]] - Amsterdam 2019. On four Thursday afternoons in October and November, various guests with different perspectives (and from different backgrounds) engaged in conversations on independent publishing and artist books within the artistic practice.

-This event provided an insight into experimental and alternative modes of bookmaking, publishing and distribution. Contemporary socio-political circumstances are demanding a radical re-orientation; how can publishing respond? The panel looked towards the future, discussing how rapidly developing technologies are opening up new avenues, as well as how to work productively and collaboratively across multiple disciplines.

+OPEN LABS was open at [https://dublin.sciencegallery.com Science Gallery] at Trinity College Dublin from 15.03.19 until 02.06.19
-* [[Silvio Lorusso]]’s book ‘ENTREPRECARIAT: Everyone Is an Entrepreneur. Nobody Is Safe’ explores precarity, self-design and failure. His variant practice combines various media such as video, textual analysis, publications, websites, installations and lectures. Lorusso currently holds positions as an Affiliated Researcher at the Institute of Network Cultures of Amsterdam, Creative Coding Tutor at the Royal Academy of Art in Den Haag and researcher at the Willem De Kooning Academy. He’s also a member of the collective varia and part of the editorial board of Italian graphic design magazine Progetto Grafico.
-* [[Publication Studio Rotterdam]] was founded in 2015 and part of a collective of 13 sibling studios around the world that specialise in print-on-demand work by artists and writers. Born out of a need for an alternative, DIY approach to mainstream publishing, the network acts as both as a distribution chain and an organic community that facilities for experiments in sustainable print practice. Currently run by Yin Yin Wong and Isabelle Sully, the Rotterdam branch has been involved in various collaborative activities, often involving local art institutions such as Conversas, MAMA and the Piet Zwart Institute. Their most recent innovative project is a portable publishing studio.
-* [[Astrid Vorstermans]] will be the talk’s moderator. She is the founder of Valiz, an independent international publisher that creates exciting publications, providing scope for critical reflection and interdisciplinary inspiration. Their strong commitment to artistic and social issues is evidenced by the socio-political themes addressed by their publications. Valiz also organizes lectures, debates and other cultural projects in which these and other contemporary concerns can be explored.
-Admission was free, but due to the limited number of seats, you had to RSVP by sending an email to info@looiersgracht60.org. The event will be held in English. The planned event will take place in the reading room of the Rijksakademie, Sarphatistraat 470.
