For the sixth year in a row, the Textileweekend Tilburg presents a varied
program on textile during the first weekend of October in Tilburg. The theme of this year’s weekend
is RE-SPECT. The program takes place at no less than 25
different locations throughout the city and every participant has a very interesting and
diverse program to offer. In the Audax Textielmuseum Tilburg you can visit the exposition reTHINK!
This exposition presents sustainable fashion, interior textile
and product design and deals with questions and dilemmas surrounding the development of sustainable
products.
The designer duo Maarten
Kolk & Guus Kusters take an important place in the Textileweekend and at several activities you
can meet them personally. Maarten & Guus have given a weaving workshop to students of the
Fontys Academy for Arts Tilburg, which resulted in a weaving loom of which the students themselves
form the parts. The Textile Museum presents work of the designer duo, who also give a lecture and
hold a workshop at the museum. Last but not least Maarten & Guus also made a work for the
collection, which is shown in the exposition reTHINK!
