Jouke Kleerebezem Biography
From my formal education as a graphic designer and typographer I developed to be an artist/curator and both individually exhibited in European contemporary art institutions and galleries as well as organized international exhibitions and published widely on art and media. Major venues include artists' space De Zaak which I co-directed between 1980-1990 and the Allocations contemporary sculpture exhibition (1992). Since 1994 my focus is on the Internet and World Wide Web. Web related work has been shown at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (`Under Capricorn', 1997) and Stroom hcbk the Hague (`Silicon Rally', 1996). For a list of prime projects' links see distributed bits.

As an editor/organizer I am further involved in the Doors of Perception conferences by the Netherlands Design Institute since 1994. Currently Doors 5, on `Play', is in preparation for November 26-28 1998. I'm the NDI's web editor since 1996 and a consultant and information manager to the Wageningen University's 1998 public sculpture program ST(*)boretum. Teaching, lecturing and panelling over the years took me to most Dutch art schools, Hunter College NYC, MUHKA Antwerp, the SoHo Guggenheim, the Van Abbe Museum and many other sites of cultural production.
