The Deschooling exhibition builds on this foundation and proposes to take a diversion through art to sketch out some elements for reflection on education and school. How can artistic thinking influence thinking about school in general? An art centre such as Komplot is a good place to welcome groups whose experimental practice consists of inventing and putting into practice alternative modes of learning and transmission. Two of these groups have their origins in a school setting: Post Collective and Atelier Indigo.

#work in progress: Location visits
for the new chapter of the exhibition trilogy "The Life of S.F"
KIOSK, Louis Pasteurlaan 2, 9000 Gent, Belgium
In December Komplot will unfold the performative exhibition 'Oracles - The Life of S.F.' , taking place in KIOSK. The exhibition will be the second chapter in and the interlude of the series of projects - a trilogy titled IV - II - III: The Life of S.F. developing by curator Koi Persyn.
The first chapter "IV" - The Youth of S.F. took place earlier this year in the beautiful atrium space of SB34 Clovis as the first act of the trilogy IV - II - III. The series takes the form of a re-telling of Sophocles' writings, based on the riddle of the sphinx: "Which creature walks on four legs in the morning (IV), two in the afternoon (II) and three (III) in the evening? (answer: humankind) and the story cycle of Oedipus, which was written - and performed - in the period of an epidemic that plagued Ancient Greece.
Artists: Apparatus22 (Dragos Olea & Erika Olea), Laurène Buchheit, Judith Geerts, Francesca Hawker, Marnie Slater, Javier Tellez

You are very welcome to join the visits of the several art initiatives on the occasion of ANDERLECHT ARTIST WEEKEND, a two-day route dedicated to explore artist-run spaces, independent collectives, and studios in Anderlecht.
Taking the shape of a local visitor’s programme, Komplot and NICC aim to facilitate a public weekend of encounters, exchange, and dialogue while visiting some of the inspiring grassroots initiatives and collective studios in the neighbourhood, where both collectives (NICC - artistic, Komplot - curatorial), have been creating active programs of events for years.
Organised by Komplot and NICC with the support of Vlaamse Overheid and VGC
During the summer months, we moved from local activities in Brussels, to co-create a residency program for artists and curators in collaboration with the platform Les Gloriettes, which is currently operating in the south of France.
During this residency, they are visiting the municipality of Langoiran to conduct month-long research in the context of Entre-Deux-Mers and its metropolitan surroundings. This immersion will allow them to nourish, build and prepare the conditions for a future event around the visual arts.
The program is supported and funded by the Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine

During the residency at Komplot, the artist is developing her project Imprint-sculpture and turns to the local community to actively integrate them within the artwork. The artist placed a 3-ton stone in Albert Ier Square, especially for this occasion, to create a space for mutual experience, stopping, unusual contact and touch. While the artist will be doing the hard physical work throughout May, every passerby will be able to join in and touch the stone.

En 2022, la nouvelle équipe curatoriale de Komplot prépare un riche programme de 12 projets avec 59 artistes s'étendant bien au-delà des murs de l'ancien salon de coiffure du Square Albert. Komplot se déploie autour de projets in-situ et hors et les murs :
Le programme de résidence accueillera 4 artistes étrangers : Natasha Papadopoulou (GR) dont vous pouvez voir l’exposition jusqu’au 26 février , suivront Radek Brousil (CZ), Wiktoria Wojciechowska (PL), dont le commissariat est assuré par Natalia Barczyńska (PL) et Pierre Labat (FR) en octobre.

In 2022 bereidt het nieuwe curatoriële team van Komplot een rijk programma voor van 12 projecten met 59 kunstenaars, dat verder zal reiken dan de muren van de voormalige kapperszaak op het Albertplein. Komplot zal zich hierbij concentreren op in-situ en off-site projecten:
Het residentie-programma verwelkomt 4 buitenlandse kunstenaars: Natasha Papadopoulou (GR), resulterend in een tentoonstelling die u tot 26 februari kunt bezichtigen, gevolgd door Radek Brousil (CZ), Wiktoria Wojciechowska (PL), gecureerd door Natalia Barczyńska (PL) en Pierre Labat (FR). Ter verdere ontwikkeling van haar partnerwerking, zal Komplot 2 artiesten; Jérémie Boyard (FR) en Sylvain Chauveau (FR), en 2 curatoren; Koi Persyn (BE) en Laila Melchior (BR), een residentie in het buitenland aanbieden in het kader van het nieuwe programma: "Les Gloriettes" (FR). Naast de solo's van de residenten, ontvangt het uitwisselingsproject ook Claire Andrzejczak (FR) in het voorjaar en Pascale Barret (FR) in het najaar.
Ook dit jaar vormt Komplot weer een vruchtbare bodem voor collectieve projecten:
Niet minder dan 4 groepstentoonstellingen zijn geprogrammeerd, waaronder het ambitieuze project van Koi Persyn (BE) "IV-II-III" The story of S.F, bestaande uit drie hoofdstukken - groepstentoonstellingen met Belgische en internationale kunstenaars in samenwerking met verschillende organisaties. Het project speelt zich voornamelijk extra muros af, en het laatste hoofdstuk wordt gepresenteerd in Komplot en KIOSK (Gent). De laatste groepstentoonstelling wordt samengesteld door Florent Delval (FR): Deschooling, een project dat wordt aangevuld met een workshop voor grafische kunstenaars zonder legale documenten en resulterend in een tentoonstelling. Ten slotte zullen het hele jaar door verschillende projecten worden voorgesteld rond beeldende kunsten. In het voorjaar, tijdens "Art Brussels", organiseert Komplot de route "Art Anderlecht", waarvoor een publication fair wordt gecureerd door Arno Huygens (BE), Natalia Barczynska (PL) en Koi Persyn (BE), en een wandeling in samenwerking met de kunstenaarsateliers van Glasgow en andere culturele partners uit Anderlecht. Daarnaast organiseert Komplot het jeugdprogramma "KIDS4KIDS - Very very young curators", op initiatief van Michèle Rossignol (FR) - waarbij kinderen 5 musea in Anderlecht zullen bezoeken om het beroep van curator te ontdekken met de steun van Mélanie Peduzzi (BE) en twee stagiairs van de Leonardo Da Vinci-school.

FR :Kidsforkids est une exposition pour enfants par et pour les enfants. Notre intention est que nous, les adultes, nous vivions à la fois à la hauteur de leurs visions et de leurs façons de penser. Ils participent à l'ensemble du processus de l'exposition : la création des œuvres (photos, dessins, sculptures, performances), ainsi que la mise en scène, le montage de l'exposition et enfin le vernissage.Tout sera déterminé par les enfants, selon leurs règles. La perception d'un enfant de 6 ans de son environnement est très différente de la nôtre et pas seulement à cause de sa taille et de son point de vue, mais aussi à cause de sa maturité et de son expérience. Michiel Ceulers, Micha Goldberg et Michèle Rossignol seront les tuteur.trice.s d'une exposition ludique à petite échelle, en cédant temporairement Château Nour aux enfants de 6 à 10 ans.
NL : Kidsforkids is een kindershow van en voor kinderen. De bedoeling is dat wij als volwassenen zowel hun visies als hun manier van denken waarmaken. Ze nemen deel aan het hele proces van de tentoonstelling: de creatie van de werken (foto's, tekeningen, sculpturen, performances), evenals de enscenering, montage en tot slot de opening. Alles zal door de kinderen worden bepaald, volgens hun regels. De perceptie van een 6-jarig kind over zijn omgeving is heel anders dan die van ons en niet alleen vanwege de grootte en het standpunt, maar ook vanwege de volwassenheid en ervaring. Michiel Ceulers, Micha Goldberg en Michèle Rossignol gaan op een kleine, speelse wijze een tentoonstelling tot stand brengen, door Château Nour tijdelijk over te dragen aan kinderen tussen 6 en 10 jaar.

A 6-year-old child's perception of his environment is very different from ours and not just because of size and point of view, but also because of maturity and experience. Michiel Ceulers, Micha Goldberg and Michèle Rossignol will create an exhibition in a small, playful way, by temporarily handing over Château Nour to children between 6 and 10 years old.
