Get matched →Library Night #10 features a talk by artist and Rijksakademie alumnus Remco Torenbosch discussing his publication 'UN', which investigates the origins of the United Nations and its institutional identity. The artist will be in conversation with curator and writer Sara Giannini.
'UN' operates as an archive, object, and publication bringing together historical documents, archival material, and visual research. It traces the UN's emergence from the failures of the League of Nations and examines the political ideals, structures, and contradictions that shaped the organisation after World War II. The work explores how blue functions as a visual instrument of institutional identity across organisations including the European Union, NATO, and the United Nations.
Remco Torenbosch is a visual artist whose practice explores systems of political and economic governance. His work has been exhibited at Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Victoria and Albert Museum London, Kunsthalle Wien, Kunsthaus Zürich, and other institutions. He has lectured at Yale School of Art New Haven, ArtCenter Pasadena, and IULM University of Milan.
Sara Giannini is a curator, writer, and educator based in Amsterdam. Since 2019 she works as programme curator with If I Can't Dance, I Don't Want to Be Part of Your Revolution. She has held curatorial fellowships at the Van Abbemuseum Eindhoven and CCS Bard New York.
