Upgrade! Eindhoven #6 presents two artists who have each a unique way of approaching art and architecture. At this informal meeting, projects, ideas and ways of working are discussed among artists, curators and interested people. Access is free, as is the coffee. We conclude the afternoon with drinks.

Holly Schmidt (Canada) is artist in residence in Eindhoven, focussing on the research of organic processes in relation to urban environments. As a guest of MAD emergent art center she is developing an installation in the Klokgebouw on Strijp-S, based on the architectural model of Park Strijp.

Daan Roosegaarde is in the news frequently with his remarkable installations, often being playfull and challenging interventions of public space. Well known from STRP, Oerol, Kijkduin and internationally are Liquid Space, Dune and Flow. A number of new projects in public space are presented also.
