Ruilen exhibition

Mediamatic has created a swap market, weekly events and an exhibition in Mediamatic Fabriek.

Ruilen was a space for swapping, a series of events and an exhibition based around bartering. We hosted a new swap-event every Sunday while swapped things also served as part of an ongoing exhibition. Read more here. Feel free to use these pictures, but don't forget to cite the photographer and Mediamatic in the credit line.
