February 7 - 11 Critical Fine Art Practice "-ing" The strange title of this exhibition was suggested by a student whose first language is Japanese. He had noticed that in English the suffix '-ing' indicates a continuous, present action: talking, making, etc. And that's what this exhibition is going to be about. Visitors to the gallery are welcome to participate. For a copy of the timetable send "-ing" to .
