Yesterday, we gathered for a full day of conversations, presentations and reflections around ephemeral art practices in public space - from performance and protest to the role of institutions, care, and community.

With a walk by Vermeir & Heiremans, tracing Aalst's cooperative history, and through presentations by Ula Sickle & Laura Herman, Atlas of Ovens, Collectif Faire-part, and Suchan Kinosh*ta & Ilse Roosens, we reflected on practices that resist permanence but demand care and time.

Thank you to all artists, speakers & participants who joined us in thinking, sharing and questioning.

Organised by NICC and Platform Kunst in Opdracht

Good news... the new coalition agreement contains important measures that should safeguard the future of our sector.

ᴀʀᴛᴡᴏʀᴋ ᴄᴇʀᴛɪꜰɪᴄᴀᴛᴇ ᴡɪʟʟ ʀᴇᴍᴀɪɴ!
The reform of the artists' statute with its achievements and structure remain in place. This is already essential for the arts and culture sector.
The work of art certificate offers many advantages and protection so that we can do our work unhindered like everyone else.

Regarding the art work allowance. The tax reduction on the unemployment benefit will be abolished. So we hope that there are not too many changes are going to happen in the coming government period because the preservation of the art work certificate remains positive only if all benefits are further
pushed through!

ᴛᴀx ᴀᴅᴠᴀɴᴛᴀɢᴇꜱ ꜰᴏʀ ᴄᴏᴘʏʀɪɢʜᴛ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇʟᴀᴛᴇᴅ ʀɪɢʜᴛꜱ ʀᴇᴍᴀɪɴ!
The withholding tax on copyright would remain at 15%. This tax advantage can provide a stable balance of income and is important for a sustainable arts practice.
FYI, for digital artists, the IT sector can also take advantage back of the copyright and its property rights.

ᴡᴇ ᴡɪʟʟ ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ʏᴏᴜ ꜰᴜʀᴛʜᴇʀ ɪɴꜰᴏʀᴍᴇᴅ!
NICC remains involved in all developments related to the artist and art worker. If there is news about the coalition agreement and/or any changes affecting your socio-economic position, you will know ASAP!

In een wereld waarin het steeds moeilijker wordt voor beginnende kunstenaars om een eerlijke vergoeding te krijgen, ruilden tien artiesten hun penselen en doeken voor een voetbalshirt. Kunstenaars van atelierwerking de Tank speelden een performatieve voetbalmatch, waarbij ze vergoed werden als voetballers om de wijzigingen van de KVR naar AKV aan te kaarten en in vraag te stellen.

Sluit aan op zaterdag 23 november van 18u30 tot 20u tijdens Mutation Festival 2024
