With shock and disbelief we have received the news that Raad voor Cultuur (Council for Culture) has advised the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science to stop funding BAK, basis voor actuele kunst for the period 2025–2028.

Research Interrupted is a week-long presentation of the BAK Fellowship for Situated Practice 2023–2024, where the artists invite the public to engage with their ongoing research.

Please find more information about all the works that will be on display in the exhibition space as part of the week-long presentation Research Interrupted.
