Rumping Radna

Radna Rumping (NL) is an independent curator and artist based in Amsterdam. Her work deals with music culture, relationships, communities, public space and forms of (in)visibility. She is co-founder of Ja Ja Ja Nee Nee Nee, an online radio platform dedicated to contemporary art and culture, and was a radio producer and DJ at Red Light Radio on Oudekerksplein from 2010-2020. After a residency at the Van Eyck Academy in Maastricht (2016/17), she developed her own artistic practice, bringing together text and sound in performative lectures and audio essays. As a curator, she has previously collaborated with Stroom Den Haag, If I Can't Dance and the Muziekgebouw - often resulting in interdisciplinary programmes. As a member of the City Curatorium, she has been advising the City of Amsterdam on art in public space since 2019.


At the Oude Kerk, Radna Rumping curated the programmes Stilstaan bij de Oude Kerk (2013), Nieuwe Tijd voor de Oude Kerk (2014) and Come Closer (2015-2022). Until 2018, she did so in close cooperation with Michiel van Iersel. A recurring question in these programmes was: how do we come together? And with whom do we come together? Each programme had a different format, in which the Oude Kerk building was always played and tested differently, in collaboration with artists - and often a participatory role for the audience. By paying attention in a building like the Oude Kerk to experimental art forms and groups that are not often at the centre of attention (such as the LGBTQ+ community, people of colour), Radna Rumping aspired to question the idea of 'margin' and 'centre', in which the Oude Kerk, the centre of the city centre, could also be a home for that which more often takes place on the margins.
