The Timmerfabriek is part of the historical site of the famous Sphinx ceramics factory and, covering over 5.000 m2, it is one of the biggest industrial buildings in Maastricht. Out of Storage consists of a varied program of events, including exhibitions, educational projects, research, workshops, debates, lectures and performances.

Out of Storage, a distinctive contemporary art project
Out of Storage offers a glimpse of the dynamics within a collecting art institute and reveals functions that usually take place behind closed doors. The visitor can take several routes through the exhibition, allowing him to share the view of diverse experts in order to gain insight into the various functions of a collecting art institute, such as restoration, education, research and presentation.

Why art from FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais?
The collection of FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais is one of the most important collections of contemporary art in France and consists of approximately 1,500 works, of which hundreds will be shown in Maastricht. The collection includes works from movements such as Arte Povera, Minimal Art, Conceptual Art, New Realism, Pop Art and Fluxus. Spearhead of the collection policy of director Hilde Teerlinck is the acquisition of socially engaged art, which encourages reflective thought and the development of a critical attitude.

Who is who?
Guus Beumer is the initiator of Out of Storage and director of Marres, Centre for Contemporary Culture. He is also the commissioner of the Dutch Pavilion during the upcoming Venice Biennale. Hilde Teerlinck is curator of Out of Storage and director of FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais.

Out of Storage is the first project of Marres Projects. Marres Projects functions as a catalyst for regional and international collaboration and addresses cultural and geopolitical themes in the form of exhibitions, publications and events. The diverse projects are developed in cooperation with cultural institutes, museums, commercial organisations, educational institutes and governmental bodies.
