Work

[edit]

Read the Masks. Tradition is Not Given

[edit]

A collaboration between Annette Krauss, Swedish artist Petra Bauer, and the two Dutch cultural and activist groups Untold and Doorbraak[5] investigating and protesting against the Dutch phenomenon of the racist black-face tradition, called Zwarte Piet (Black Pete). Read the Masks looks at the underlying institutional structures in Dutch society in upholding this tradition, its involvement in broader racist structures of which Zwarte Piet is but a symptom.[6]

The project has been first realized in the context of the exhibition Be(com)ing Dutch at Van Abbemuseum 2008–2011.[7] It consists of three parts: an installation and announcements for a performance and protest march that never happened (2008),[8] debates (2008) and a film[9] by Annette Krauss and Petra Bauer (2009).

Read the Masks. Tradition is Not Given is discussed in White Innocence: Paradoxes of Colonialism and Race by Gloria Wekker (2016),[10] The Emancipated Museum by Steven ten Thije (2017),[11] and "A Heteronomous Hobby: Report from the Netherlands" by Sven Lütticken (2011).[12]

Hidden Curriculum

[edit]

The art project Hidden Curriculum is a collaboration with high school students. It revolves around the question of how high school students investigate a so-called hidden curriculum in their specific everyday school environment. Krauss' understanding of the term 'hidden curriculum' is everything that is learned in school next to the official curriculum.[13]

Long-term collaborations, and exhibitions for Hidden Curriculum were realized with the help of Casco Art Institute in 2007 (with Gerrit Rietveld College, and Amadeus Lyceum Utrecht), at The Showroom 2012,[14] and Whitechapel Gallery 2012–2013.[15]

Hidden Curriculum is discussed in Documenting Secrets by Hannah Jickling and Helen Reed;[16] "Annette Krauss e.a. – Hidden Curriculum" in onderwijs filosofie (2017);[17] I think the artistic is like a double-edged sword. by Laila Huber (2014);[18] and "… To be hidden does not mean to be merely revealed – Part 2: Artistic research on hidden curriculum"[19] in Medienimpulse 2015.

[20]
