From 2–4 and 9–11 February 2024, the ACR XL exhibition 'Beurstraverse; An ounce of information is worth a pound of data' takes place in two rooms in the Koopgoot in Rotterdam. The exhibition brought together 25 artists, each connected to one gallery, art institute, or artist-run space in Rotterdam. Conceptually, the exhibition built on the systems that come together in the Beurstraverse. While the works in Beurstraverse 154 examined monetary systems, trade and transport systems in various media, the focus of the works in Beurstraverse 111 was on information systems, errors, and access.

Against a background of passers-by, the work SUEZ (2023) showed passing container ships in the Suez Canal, and entered into dialogue with other works on coordination systems (Giuditta Vendrame) and motor oil as a material (Johannes Steendam).
