P1 is working closely with project partner Museum Arnhem to realize an exhibition in Presikhaaf as part of the Biënnale Gelderland 22-23. For Museum Arnhem, the collaboration represents an opportunity to expressly profile itself outside the walls of the museum building and connect with conversations in the city. The collaboration provides an appropriate context for examining conceptual blind spots and misconceptions, which were also prevalent in the period of modernism.

Several artists have been specially commissioned to create new work for Biënnale Gelderland 22-23, including Erik Tlaseca, Urok Shirhan and Wouter Venema. In addition to new work, the exhibition will also feature research and archival material from makers involved in the Biënnale Gelderland 22-23. Research and interventions from Nijmegen, such as the SMET archive, will find their way to Arnhem and be added to a cumulative exhibition.

The exhibition space is currently being made fireproof and publicly (including wheelchair) accessible. An unused 400-square-meter basement from 1965 in the middle of the Presikhaaf district serves as a base of operations with an above-ground visitor center. The expected opening is January 28th, 2023.
