*New Program Series: Blowup*
July 7, 20:00 -- 23:00
V2_, Eendrachtsstraat 10,Rotterdam
Admission: 5 Euro (Free for students and if you bring your cat)

Blowup is a new series of events and exhibitions that explore 
contemporary questions from multiple viewpoints, curated by Michelle 
Kasprzak. Blowup zooms in on ideas, bringing into focus clear pictures 
of how art, design, philosophy, and technology are transforming our 
lives -- or reinforcing the status quo. The first edition "Wild Things" 
will take place at July 7, it will examine art and design projects that 
are created with animals in mind as the end users and active 
participants -- not people.
