The artworks in the group exhibition bring together a sense of ‘saudade’, which can be translated as a mixture of melancholy and longing.

Get ready for a thought-provoking tour of the East District. Isabelle Britto, assistant researcher at The Black Archives and freelance researcher in the field of Black history, takes you on a tour. Britto knows Amsterdam Oost not only as a neighbourhood with a long colonial history, as visible in the street names of the Plantagebuurt and the Indische buurt, but also as a neighbourhood where new cultural voices like those of The Black Archives can be found. Starting at 14:00 at Framer Framed, the two-hour long itinerary includes guided tours at Framer Framed, P/////AKT, Tilde and The Black Archives.
This tour is created by Floor de Bruin & Julia van der Voort, 3rd-year students of the Breitner Academie. Register to join the tour here.

11-13 May, 10:00-18:00 & 14-15 May, 12:00-18:00 | Capital C (Weesperplein 4B, Amsterdam)
In honour of the 10th anniversary, Amsterdam Art is organising the exhibition, It’s Your Birthday. The artworks made available by the participating galleries and residencies represent different phases of a party: from the preparations to the afterparty and the subsequent hangover. This exhibition, taking place on 11-15 May in the Amsterdam Art Gallery at Capital C, is an opportunity for visitors to purchase artworks from participating institutions of Amsterdam Art Week. Framer Framed is representing special artworks by artist Stephen Tayo, whose work featured in the project A Funeral for Street Culture (2021).
