First edition of Common Knowledge in Maastricht

UntitledCommon Knowledge is a new monthly series that offers a space of exchange for ideas, knowledge and experience supporting your creative entrepreneurship. It connects you to other creative makers and non-makers, and boosts your professional skills through workshops, discussions, lectures and presentation evenings.

Every month from September 2013 until June 2014, Common Knowledge will present an event based on a variety of subjects. Each time the topic focuses on a different aspect of creative entrepreneurship and its usefulness for creatives. The events always end with a drink and the opportunity to meet other creatives.

Edition # 01

The first edition of Common Knowledge on 26. September 2013 kicks off with six presentations by young art and culture professionals who will share their work experience and current projects. Using their creativity and drive to set up cultural projects, they represent different ways of working in the cultural field and can inspire others with their ideas. Also, the presentations will show different forms of entrepreneurship.

Patricia Graf & Fabian Seibert / designers /  Design Metropole Aachen

The Designmetropole Aachen is a loose network of artists from different disciplines. Based in Aachen, Germany, they operate in the whole (Eu)region, showing innovative ways of working together for ideas and projects, thereby crossing disciplines and language borders. They see a huge potential for design in this region and continue promoting it with their projects and cooperations. Designers analyse, experiment and think in strange ways and might make a good idea a success. Might turn an invention into a successful innovation.

Designers are the link between research and business.

ABABA is a concept by Mothership and executed by Galerista Sophie Bargmann in Rotterdam; The House of Ababa goes a step beyond traditional galleries.

ABABA is a new art store that has a low threshold and is meant for all budgets. A place that is welcoming and invites you to just browse through the store. ABABA presents art in an unconventional way that inspires, provokes and stimulates at the same time. Where art with price tags is displayed in the window, where established artists are exhibited right next to new talents and where prices can range from 50 to 50.000 euro.

As a multidisciplinary artist she creates alternate and naive sculptural realities. Since 2008 she also develops exhibitions as curator. Marie aims to connect people with diverse ideas. She does this for example as co-founder of BohV – Beelden op het Vrijthof, an organization that strives for the confrontation between art and a mass audience during exhibitions on the Vrijthof in Maastricht.

I get a kick out of reality. That’s why I want to experience it as much as possible.
