Date: 14.01.20. Rijksakademie, studio manege. Images of various materials that are unpacked in the studio by SMW and MH. Written caption by Sands on a rolled-up painting ‘meet your own needs’. Two images of a diagram MH has made during a brainstorm about the possible structure of the database.
“Figuring out more typologies. How do we call the ‘It’s a Schneemann thing’ mug and other objects that Sands has printed by companies such as Hema? A sculpture. Letters, notes and other texts that have been distributed? Distributed notes. ‘one thing at a time’ ‘better late than never’.” – RR. From the meta-archive process diary. “This is a drawing by MH, thinking about a structure for the archive.” – RR.

“MH discussed the set-up for an archive, with possibilities for cross-referencing-‘Adrian would be proud’. Names and relations with people can play a big role and become one of the ways to search through the archive (aside from year, typology etc). It would be great if the archive will eventually become public. Our conversation went on about Sands his website and its current list of names (mostly female or feminist artists). Sands mentioned there have been many other websites before, built in collaboration with Robin, including one that had 3500 links (!). The link and reference as a way to give attention to others. Thinking of these websites, and how Sands used social media such as facebook as a ‘process archive’, it’s a reminder Sands has actually been taking care of his archiving for a long time.” From the meta-archive process diary. – RR.

Rijksakademie Internal Open Studios – 07.09.20. “My relationship with money is disastrous.” – SMW. “If you show them (galleries, museums, employers in general) that they can do that to you, they will do it to everyone. We need to get paid for the hours that we put in, not the product. My salary per hour is X much, as per X Artist Association guidelines.” – Anon.

“It might feel weird to suddenly order archival boxes with acid free paper to store works that have been stored very loosely at the studio before. ‘Is this going to change the way I make work?’. Not wanting to take up too much space. ‘I have no market-value, it’s all about self-worth’. Sands is ‘working against capitalism by overwhelming the market’. But: the value others see in the work (whether market or not) is also a value that can lead to different types of care.” From the meta-archive process diary. – RR.

“Is it trash or trashy? Trashy can be good, but these rolled paintings were first stored in trash bags, and perhaps that went a bit too far. Can we also let the paintings be trashy, while store them in a more careful way?” – RR.
