Projects
Vegas Gallery started as a project space sponsored by MINIVEGAS. Over the course of recent years, that London project space has developed into a professional representing gallery. However, 2010 sees MINIVEGAS getting back to the core of why it all started in the first place with: back to ‘art for art’s sake’ and providing platforms for the presentation of contemporary art not directly linked to the commercial aspects of the art world, and reinvigorates its commitment to supporting contemporary visual arts with a series of initiatives facilitated by its own resources and location/s in cooperation with BAKED BEANS.
The first of these is ‘PEEP SHOW’, commencing in Spring 2010 at Amsterdam’s Keizersgracht with the support of business/creative partner BAKED BEANS, a series of projects will take place on the ground level of the building with 24-hour visibility to the passing public. Intentionally referencing Amsterdam’s particular reputation and current political debate , the ‘PEEP SHOW’ projects will play with the expectations of what can be seen through Amsterdam’s windows after dark.
The first project will open concurrent with Art Amsterdam in May 2010 with an exhibition of Pascal Rousson. The opening will be Thursday 27 May 5-7 pm.
The exhibition will be on from 28 may - 18 july
