CODE OF CONDUCT

For our 2018 edition GET LOST – art route invited artists to take inspiration from the concept of the Code of Conduct. This term refers to a company’s behavioral code and comprises the norms and values directors and employees must adhere to. Today it often contains guidelines on how to meet corporate social responsibility and sustainability goals. In an impassioned, almost ideological treatise the essence of the relation between the individual and the collective, and between corporate culture and corporate policy is sought. The Code of Conduct gives us a peek into the soul of an organization.

The shiny towers on the Zuidas are set high, but behind the tinted glass the ambitions for moral and corporate social responsibility must bring the appropriate dilemmas. For how can profit go hand in hand with morality and corporate social responsibility? How can you marry up business with ideals?

GET LOST focuses on the Code of Conduct because it somewhat reflects the search for new avenues in this globalized society. Nothing seems to be certain, making it almost a quest for the individual to navigate between good and bad in order to find the proper ‘code of behavior.’ Artists preeminently have the freedom to play with different perspectives. Their suggestions, poetry and experiments encourage sensitivity to our surroundings and make us reflect.

In the dialogue between Zuidas companies and the international artists both brought their own expertise and means. The companies made the artworks financially possible and gave their input on their selection. The artists tackled their commissions per venue and gave free reign to their imagination. This led to awesome exchanges, causing the projects to materialize in an atmosphere of enthusiasm and trust. As a result we proudly present twelve poetic, playful and critical artworks, with the occasional Trojan horse and definitely the odd jester.
