Shell and Luggage of Life

The ‘Packaging’ project is a partnership between five countries: Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Poland and the Netherlands. These countries are represented by no more than twelve artists, each contributing a maximum of three works. In addition, each country organizes at least one exhibition where all works are shown, some physical as space permits, the rest on video.

The artists have every opportunity to tackle the broad theme in their own way. Contact between artists is an important aspect of the project, where the diversity of different cultures can provide added value. The project runs from 2023 to 2025.
