Overview

Onomatopee is a vibrant open meeting space in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, that seamlessly merges an exhibition venue with a publishing house and a RISO workshop. Its program is built on three pillars: Public, Publishing, and Print. The Public pillar presents a visually captivating program of exhibitions and lectures. Publishing adds a theoretical layer through carefully crafted publications, while Print, the RISO workshop, empowers makers to develop and produce, infusing their unique perspectives into the thematic narrative. At the heart of its mission lies a dedication to visual art and autonomous design, providing a stage for progressive individuals with an experimental mindset to share insights on contemporary issues with peers and a broader audience. Onomatopee cultivates a dynamic synergy by fostering a community of makers and thinkers, actively supporting practices of research, reflection, presentation, production, and collaboration. It does not only cultivate ideas but also transforms communities and nurtures talent, blurring the boundaries between visual arts and autonomous design with a focus on societal themes. The organization is deeply rooted in a local context while encouraging makers to contribute to the international discourse. Its publishing arm produces a numbered series of books, with recent titles including Onomatopee 269 Free Radicals, Onomatopee 266 Hydrographies, Onomatopee 267 Follow the Plants, Onomatopee 265 In But Not Of, Onomatopee 268 DATAS, Onomatopee 264 Counter-Collections, Onomatopee 262 With a Bird, and Onomatopee 201.1.3 Research For People Who (Think They) Would Rather Create. The program includes exhibitions, open calls, book launches, RISO workshops, and participation in art book fairs such as Offprint Paris. Onomatopee's program is supported by various funders and partners. The organization operates from Lucas Gasselstraat 2a, 5613 LB Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
