Centre D 39;appel

[Elgin Carmona]

DeAppel is a contemporary arts centre, located in Amsterdam. Since it was founded in 1975 by Wies Smals [nl], the goal of De Appel is to function as a stage for research and presentation of visual arts. Exhibitions, publications and discursive events are the main activities of De Appel.[citation needed]

In 1994, Saskia Bos established an intensive course, called 'The Curatorial Programme'.[3] Over a period of eight months a selective group of five to six people are trained to become a curator. At the end of 2012, former director Ann Demeester [nl] initiated a new professional development programme in collaboration with The Fair Gallery: the Gallerist programme. This programme was the first practice-oriented educational course for (aspiring) gallery owners and (young) art professionals who wanted to deepen their curatorial and business competencies in the commercial segment of the art world.[4]

The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), with the support of UNICC, has partnered with industry experts ServiceNow, British Telecom (BT) and Thirdera to set up a regional contact centre (RCC) for refugees fleeing the ongoing war in Ukraine.

Since the onset of the full-scale war in Ukraine, UNHCR has been working on innovative solutions to ensure that those forced to flee have access to the information they need as part of our accountability to affected populations. Partnering with UNICC and the private sector has allowed us to launch this Regional Contact Centre, the first of its kind, enabling us to communicate with the people we serve, providing them with information, and referring those with vulnerabilities to the services they need.

UNHCR, with its mission to safeguard the rights and well-being of refugees, reports that there were more than 8 million Ukrainian refugees recorded across Europe by the end of February 2023. UNHCR works to ensure that refugees can exercise the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge in another state, and to return home voluntarily when they choose and when it is safe to do so.

UNICC, the strategic partner for innovative digital solutions across the UN system, stands by UNHCR to support the millions of refugees they serve worldwide. We are proud to collaborate with ServiceNow, BT and Thirdera to rapidly deploy and maintain an innovative platform that is being used to provide support to those affected by the war in Ukraine.

At Thirdera, our goal is always to use transformation to improve the lives of the many and this initiative is a perfect example of how we can provide that value. We believe that our strength and depth on the platform and the Customer Service Management solution, will make for a fast implementation allowing Ukrainian refugees to get access to the necessary support that they need in these difficult times.

When an emergency situation arose in Ukraine and a refugee crisis developed, ServiceNow wanted to help in any way that we could. Technology should be used as a power for good, and ServiceNow is working closely with UNCHR, BT, UNICC and Thirdera to lay the foundations for a more efficient way of sharing and managing information, to support refugees impacted by the crisis. Connectivity and communication offered through this solution is key in supporting those in critical need.

The service, which is a cost-free phone calling system, is now available in Hungary and Poland and can be scaled up to other countries in the region, depending on needs. The RCC is operated by teams based in Poland and Hungary, who speak both Ukrainian and Russian.

With a global blueprint in mind, this RCC solution is designed to be used in other situations and to be rapidly deployed to support UNHCR and partner UN organizations dealing with emergencies elsewhere around the world.

De Appel is an exhibition space for discovering what is new and important in modern art. Together with long time renovated and only recently reopened Stedelijk Museum, De Appel is the most important exhibition space for the contemporary art in Amsterdam. Since its creation in 1975, De Appel Art Centre served as a platform for the events in international modern art, but also as a research centre, publishing house, educational institution, an art library and an artistic archive.

Dutch artist Wies Smals gave first performances in 1974 and a year later, he established De Appel in the old warehouse at Brouwersgracht, as the art performances center. De Appel became renowned in Europe and its name and a red apple logo were recognized by the art lovers years before the Apple Computer Inc. corporation was established in Cupertino in California (1976, incorporated 1977). Since 2003 until 2014, Belgian curator Ann Demeester, an art critic and writer, a long time assistant to the famous Belgian museum guru Jan Hoet, led De Appel. Presently an Italian curator Lorenzo Benedetti is an artistic director of De Appel.

De Appel receives many portfolios from the new artists proposing their work. While always interested in new art, De Appel is not able to return the portfolios by mail. You are requested to make an appointment to collect your own portfolio.

A sympathetic, modern, offering fresh local food restaurant Moes is located in the basement of De Appel art centre. Its menu changes every week and it is accessible directly from the street, without an admission ticket.
