Greatest hits - all gone

2006-11-19T13:19:00.000+02:00

Last t-shirts from "The greatest hits!" are now all gone, but the exhibition continues. SPAM of the day: "Extracullicular communist". And yes, that guest did get a t-shirt... :-)

Busy sunday :-)

2006-11-19T12:23:00.000+02:00

The record-exhibition next door attracts lots of visitors to our exhibition as well, so sunday seems to become a much busier day than yesterday.

Flounder is one of those works that people really seem to like.

Dude, where is my internet-connection?

2006-11-19T11:45:00.000+02:00

"Page not found"?

Sunday starts with yet another surprise: a dysfunctioning wlan-connection. So we are stuck with a web-art-exhibition with no internet-connection. Well... restart, restart and yet another restart and here we go again...

One of todays' best spam-messages... :-)
Todays' t-shirts are now gone, but remember that you can still get your own by bringing us at least three spam-messages tomorrow (sunday) morning at 11.00 a.m. when the exhibition opens (there are still 10 more shirts to be given away).

T-shirts, t-shirts

2006-11-18T12:08:00.000+02:00

No queue behind the door this morning. Maybe it's the really awfull weather that makes people stay at home. Still, the t-shirts are almost gone (2 left, so bring in those spam-messages now!)

Extremely happy t-shirt owner...

Slow friday evening, Big Club Night
