Because the city of Tilburg has decided for the time being not to support Lustwarande any longer for the period 2025-2028, the twenty-fifth anniversary edition of Lustwarande, MATERIAL WORLDS, cannot take place in its jubilee year 2025.
Tilburg shamelessly shows its technocratic administrative side, with no attention for the context: the enormous track record of Lustwarande and its long-term relationship with the city. However, we are not giving up the fight and are working on getting the municipality to come up with a four-year subsidy after all. For the time being MATERIAL WORLDS has been postponed till next year.
