Agency vzw

Agency vzw was founded in 2019 by artist and activist Kobe Matthys (1970–2023) together with a group of people to support the activity of Agency as a practice.

The organisation’s purpose is 'to explore the interference of the apparatus of intellectual property law for an ecology of artistic practices and to revive a sustainable diversity of practices.'

A praticotheque is what Kobe envisioned the ensemble of the space, the List and library to be. An environment built to allow research, debate and alliance between practices.

In a trajectory supported by the Flemish Community, Agency vzw is today working on ways to open up the praticotheque to the public and continue the practice of Agence.

AGENCY VZW WIKI

The Agency vzw WIKI is an experiment in creating a user-driven and -governed inventory of the praticotheque in a wiki-environment.

For the moment it is under construction by a dedicated working group and can only be consulted at the praticotheque.
