Foundation
The Blindpainters Foundation is an Amsterdam based Art Foundation founded in 1994 that produces intervention projects in a contemporary art context with non-commercial aims.

Europartrain
The europartrain traveled through Europe, dynamically collecting railway carriages from every country to initiate and stimulate the interaction and cooperation between the different European cultures. While the Artists reflected on the present European cultural climate, people on train stations could step into one carriage and by walking from wagon to wagon, they crossed the entire continent without the train being in motion. .
