About:
Bureau Gruzemayer is (was) an 'independent dependency' of the former Factor 44 vzw. As of August 2007 it takes over some of the projects outstanding at the division of operations as well as developing new strategies for a reduced program of activities. Bureau Gruzemayer has no exhibition space of it's own, and so relies on occasional and temporary sites for short presentations of projects and illustration of concepts. While many of these will be project-specific, a few will be relatively more permanent and witness a series of developments. For the moment these will be called 'temporary submersibles' and will either not be accessible to the public at all or on a very limited scale. In the first instance one can follow developments via this web site, which will be updated regularly, at a later stage the projects will be presented in other forms, such as publications and/or reportage-exhibitions. Which brings us to the second aspect of the function of Bureau Gruzemayer, which is the collation and collection of documentation from various activities into archival units for use in further projects or as research material. These archives might include material form the bureau itself or from activities undertaken in cooperation with other entities and associations. ongoing / still engaged in sub-section III / 4: (now again on hold due to the sudden demise of project instigator PDC) |
