The Centre’s co-founder and director, Bronwyn Lace, travelled to Prague in September 2026 to lead a workshop with ten cross-disciplinary artists at Kunsthalle Praha, culminating in The Open Moment. 



The Open Moment took place at Kunsthalle Praha, in conversation with William Kentridge’s exhibition The Battle Between YES and NO which ran from April to September 2026.

Lace’s workshop drew on the methodology of The Centre for the Less Good Idea, exploring collaborative, collective, and secondary thinking.

Devised by the artists and Lace, The Open Moment took the form of a collapsed conference, and extended the logic of the studio or the stage into the realm of the academic conference.

Participants began by constructing a panel discussion before playfully refusing its form, and collapsing and extending it into a live performance.

In June 2026, William Kentridge's 'Apron' (2024) officially opened to the public, functioning as a new link in the visual axis between DAS MINSK Kunsthaus, the Brauhausberg, and Potsdam’s city center.

The sculpture, which depicts an aproned figure caught mid-stride carrying an oversized megaphone in place of an upper body and head, was inaugurated with a special performance by Centre collaborators Thulani Chauke and Arnulf Ballhorn, as well as the screening of a film by Kentridge.
