Out of Storage

Out of Storage is the first public project by Marres Projects and has given a possible answer to the current economic crisis and the resulting stagnation in the development of the urban area Belvédère. The Timmerfabriek in Maastricht, the location of Out of Storage, forms part of this massive development project, which is currently subject to a fundamental reconsideration. The empty factory of more than 5,000 m2 found a temporary purpose thanks to this project, proving the potential of the location and the innovative partnerships that art institutes can enter into. In this particular case Marres Projects with the institute for collection FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais, the Area Development Group WOM Belvédère, the City of Maastricht, the Province of Limburg and Maastricht VIA 2018

A glimpse of the dynamics within a collecting art institute
Can death, decay and blood indeed be so beautiful, almost seductive? 
Consumerist excess and the fiction of economic speculation
Create or destroy
Every bird can only sing what it is able to hear
Health as common good and social capital
How to deal with this new reality?
is the idea of a school still grounded in the locality of a physical environment?
The ultimate symbol of godlessness
Trust me - I'm a designer
We'll be rich tonight!
Without a palace of glass, life is a burden
