Arus Balik – Shifting Currents

Opening on 24 September, the Arus Balik – Shifting Currents programme, presented by Nieuwe Instituut, Museum Het Schip, and Gudskul, connects architecture and design networks across regions and their diasporas, exploring these fields as reflections of colonial histories and avenues for shared futures. Celebrating its first day in Gudskul spirit, the GUD Instituut Living Room creates a ‘ruang tamu’ to showcase stories from the Indonesian diaspora on hospitality and collective comfort with a public program and gathering space. The programme runs until 2 February 2025.
