For fifteen inspiring years, Nieuw Dakota has created exhibitions, provided a platform for artists, forged fruitful collaborations, introduced children to art, and inspired countless visitors. We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved together.
We would like to sincerely thank everyone who has been part of this extraordinary journey – all the artists who have exhibited with us, our loyal visitors, generous donors, passionate partners, and everyone who has held Nieuw Dakota dear to their hearts.
Who knows, until we meet again.
Ellis Kat vertelt dat het succes van een tentoonstelling volgens haar bepaald wordt door wat eraan voorafgaat: “bij Nieuw Dakota was een egalitaire aanpak kenmerkend – geen hiërarchische structuur waarbij een curator dicteert, maar een gezamenlijk proces van verkennen en vormgeven. Het is deze open benadering die ruimte schept voor onverwachte wendingen en nieuwe inzichten. “Ik ga dit gewoon proberen en ik zie wel wat eruit komt,” zoals een kunstenaar het formuleerde, werd hier niet gezien als gebrek aan visie, maar als een uitnodiging tot experiment.
Dat is een van de dingen waar Nieuw Dakota heel sterk in was.”

We will now retreat into a deep, deep winter’s sleep, reflecting on possibilities for a restart. And for now, to all of you supporting Nieuw Dakota for the past 15 years: THANK YOU. 💙

born to runn by Ferdinand Waas is a sonic homage to cover versions often heard in bars or cafés—where limitations lead to reinterpretations rather than original expressions.
Created for Nieuw Dakota’s farewell event Beyond Expiration Date?, this compilation of sung and hummed and spoken tunes by members of the Nieuw Dakota community, including former employees, visitors, and donors, reflects the bittersweet nature of endings, drastic cuts, and transformation.
uncertainly dinner is an interactive performance by Jojo Knowles, in which the memory of a dinner that has already taken place is preserved through frantic drawings on the table. Using pencil and charcoal, the remnants of food, conversations, and spilled drinks are recorded in an effort to hold onto this cherished memory.
Join the performance of Jojo Knowles this Saturday night, during the final opening at Nieuw Dakota: Beyond Expiration Date?, at 8PM.
At 7:00 PM, a special art tour will start at Nieuw Dakota. Here opens the final Making Waves mini exhibition by Silke Riis: The world has dropped its petals and I scooped them back up.
The dying flower is a well-known symbol of mortality, but it is also a symbol of transformation. It marks the end of one thing and the beginning of the next, forcing you to empty out the stinky water from your vase with the potential of bringing home new flowers. Silke Riis likes to think of her sculptures as picked flowers: Slowly ageing and changing, browning and breaking, but precious because of it.
At Nieuw Dakota she rejects the dying flowers’ connotation with death and instead embraces them as a symbol of ‘change’, the ultimate breeding ground for new beginnings. Her floral installation is made exclusively with “expired” / pre-loved / rotting flowers either donated by friends, discounted at supermarkets, or dug out of the trash bins of cemeteries. These flowers get a second life for the weekend and you are welcome to take one home with you.
“Reality has grown old and gone senile; after all, it is definitely subject to the same laws as every living organism – it ages. (...) Apoptosis is natural death, brought about by the tiredness and exhaustion of matter. In Greek this word means ‘the dropping of petals’. The world has dropped its petals.”
- Olga Tokarzcuk, ‘Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead’ (pg. 65)

This final act marks the conclusion of a turbulent autumn. There will be laughter, dancing, crying and eating. We hope to celebrate our farewell, or perhaps our resurrection, with you.
One of the participating artists is Ian Skirvin. He presents his site specific work Nymphaion (2024), a shelter for the last believers in contemporary art. Constructed from the very materials that once promised a hopeful future and safe haven for artists and art lovers alike.
BE WELCOME
The works in the exhibition ‘Dancing Shadows’ explore the power of simplicity and the connection we can feel with our immediate surroundings. It is remarkable how something as simple as a shadow can evoke such wonder, revealing hidden patterns and shapes in the everyday objects around us.
In a world that moves ever faster, the exhibition invites us to take a moment of reflection and appreciation for the small, often overlooked details in our lives, like a shadow. It highlights how something ordinary can reconnect us with the beauty and playfulness of the world around us. Dancing Shadows touches on themes such as nostalgia, collective memory, and the power of attentiveness in a world often dominated by distraction.

Perhaps Nieuw Dakota's last night. Or maybe not? Have we managed to extend our expiration date?
Tonight, we reveal what our efforts of survival over the past few months have accomplished. Either way, Nieuw Dakota will need to leave something behind, and we take this moment together with artists and audience to explore how one deals with loss.
What actions do we take to try to fix memories, shape impermanence? When the trail goes dead, can we swerve into clandestine practices to hold on to the communities we have formed over the years? We embrace finality as a poetic opportunity to come to terms with the inevitable. And, we turn ourselves inside out to make visible those things necessary to keep an art space like Nieuw Dakota operational.
This final act of Tense Tides marks the conclusion of a turbulent autumn. There will be laughter, dancing, crying and eating. We hope to celebrate our farewell, or perhaps our resurrection, with you.
Featuring work by An Ye Zhi de Jong, Jojo Knowles, Ian Skirvin, Ferdinand Waas, and an eruption from The Floorkillrz.
