16 February 2008 - 8 June 2008
German-born British painter Lucian Freud (b. 1922) is famous around the world for his intimate and revealing portraits and nudes. With his keen eye and highly personal approach, he lays bare the hidden feelings and thoughts of his subjects. The aim is not to achieve any superficial or flattering likeness, but to reveal the essence of the subject’s inner being. The results are impressive and extremely private portraits of vulnerable individuals. The first ever Dutch retrospective of this extraordinary and unconventional artist opens on 16 February at the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag. It runs until 8 June 2008.

PROGRAM opening:
5:00 - 6:30 p.m SVEN: Surveillance Video Entertainment Network aka "AI to the People" by Amy Alexander, Wojciech Kosma and Vincent Rabaud.
If computer vision technology can be used to detect when you look like a terrorist, criminal, or other "undesirable" - why not when you look like a rock star? http://deprogramming.us/ai/
6:30 p.m. Live performance by Scanner: Sound Polaroid 0508
Mapping the city with voices, intercepted mobile phone conversations of unsuspecting talkers are edited into a musical setting, bringing into focus issues of privacy and the dichotomy between the public and the private spectrum. The performance offers an anonymous window into reality, cutting and pasting information to structure an alternative vernacular. http://www.scannerdot.com
