Let’s visit the Bijlmer Spinoza Festival together
Spinoza Map. Thomas Hirschhorn and Marcus Steinweg (2007).
In the summer of 2002, a shuttle service was needed to find the enigmatic Swiss artist Thomas Hirschhorn and his Bataille Monument, located in a mixed Turkish-German social housing complex in a suburb of Kassel. This summer, Hirschhorn is creating a monument for another philosopher, titled The Bijlmer Spinoza Festival, work in progress for and with “a non-exclusive audience”. It is located in the Bijlmer, a neighborhood southeast of Amsterdam. The Swiss artist has made camp here, together with philosopher Marcus Steinweg, art historian ‘Ambassador’ Vittoria Martini, and Alexandre and Daniel Costanzo, editors of The Bijlmer Spinoza-Festival Newspaper. They have been staying in one of the signature Bijlmer appartments for some three months. The work is continuously in progress, and will be up for two months.

The Spinoza Theater, with Bijlmer residents.
Thomas Hirschhorn is one of our favorite artists. One of Non-fiction’s mottos is a Hirschhorn mantra: “Energy yes, quality no.” We want to use the opportunity and momentum of the Wednesday night series at De Verdieping to take a shuttle – i.e. the metro – to the Spinoza Monument in the Bijlmer. We will meet at 4.45 PM at Trouw Amsterdam, take the metro to Kraaiennest in order to be there on time for the lecture of Marcus Steinweg, the Spinoza Theater - directed by Hirschhorn, written by Steinweg, starring Bijlmer residents – and all of the components that form the Bijlmer Spinoza Festival. Admission is free, metro is three zones and takes 13 minutes.
We hope to see you tomorrow.

Hi, I just stopped by to visit your website and thought I’d say I had a great visit.
This article has inspired me to continue focusing on my own blog
After i originally commented My partner and i visited the actual “Notify me personally any time brand new articles are added” checkbox now whenever a review will be included I purchase many e-mails with similar review. Can there be however you are able to eliminate individuals through in which service? Cheers!
I’m impressed, I need to say. Actually rarely do I encounter a blog that’s each educative and entertaining, and let me inform you, you have hit the nail on the head. Your idea is outstanding; the problem is one thing that not enough individuals are talking intelligently about. I’m very completely satisfied that I stumbled throughout this in my search for something regarding this.
