Extrapool
Extrapool is a venue and art space based in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. Extrapool shows a diversity in sound art, performance art, short exhibitions and high-quality printed matter. Concerts, workshops, screenings and book presentations are organized on a regular basis with a special focus on artists without extensive distribution networks or who operate in the margins of the art and music scene. The events of Extrapool are informal and intimate, distinctive and always with a sense of play.
Knust is the graphic department within Extrapool; a print workshop with bookbinding facilities, and specialized in the stencil printing technique since 1984, also known as Risograph or mimeograph printing. The print workspace is founded and organized by and for artists, and offers stencil print services in a reasonable edition for a reasonable price. DIY-based projects are also an option.
Additionally Knust self-publishes and has facilitated various residency programs within Extrapool (such as Art Prison, Work Holiday, A2<3D). The program of Extrapool is diverse and continuously changing. In the recent past there have been sound residencies (such as Brombron and Hausse) in Extrapool as well as art residencies (such as Deelstaat and Destillaat).
In addition, Extrapool and Knust are open to project proposals and residency proposals from artists who would like to independently and privately make use of the studio, venue space or print workspace. All in consultation with the team of Extrapool.
