So we spent the evening yesterday at the docks of Antwerp; yes, for those of you who didn't know, Antwerp is a bustling port-city too!!
I was involved with this project - MAS under construction, where there was a one day exhibition/livemusic/BBQ event, and i was working on the exhibition component of this where we installed works INSIDE a heavy goods boat!!
here is a pic of the MAS [museum aan de stroom] in the morning; it's a new building built on 'het eilandje' or small island, which is in the docks...and the museum is for the maritime history as well as ethnographic past of Antwerp...

here is a pic of the boat where we installed the works into...it was a really nice space with lots of rust and textured wood! and get this, the owner is a web designer!!

this was some kind of light-boat which was docked around the corner from the MAS..cool eh?
and this is the view into the boat....here we have some artists installing their works ...

and this was one of the main things i had to work with an artist-friend, Ephameron - it was just about being finished when i took this pic...

one little thing...Jos has mentioned this in the past days...the weather here actually looks really nice - AND it averages about 15 degrees during the day...which is great!! the nights on the other hand are dropping to the single digits, so it is getting a bit cold...
nothing some hot chocolate can't solve, eh?
