Opening The People United Will Never Be Defeated
21.00 uur: optreden van pianist Bobby Mitchell
BAVO, Joep Bertrams, Marc Bijl, Libia Castro & Ólafur Ólafsson, Domenique Himmelsbach de Vries, Iratxe Jaio & Klaas van Gorkum, Tellervo Kalleinen en Oliver Kochta, Sjoerd Oudman, Fernando Sánchez Castillo, Jack Segbars, Jonas Staal
Vrijdag 19 februari opent The People United Will Never Be Defeated, een actuele groepstentoonstelling rondom de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen van 3 maart, waarin de verhoudingen tussen kunst en politiek kritisch worden belicht. Video-installaties, sculpturen, campagneliederen, kunst uit de collecties van politieke partijen: de kunstenaars in de tentoonstelling zitten de politicus op de huid en stellen op expliciete wijze de politiek als systeem aan de orde. Aanleiding voor de tentoonstelling was het essay Post-Propaganda van Jonas Staal, waarmee hij de discussie over kunst en politiek verder wil aanzetten. Tijdens de opening speelt pianist Bobby Mitchell het muziekstuk The People United Will Never Be Defeated! (1976) van componist Frederic Rzewski.
NB. Eerder op de avond opent Witte de With de tentoonstellingen 'ACT IV: I Could Live in Africa', 'ACT V: Power Alone' en Isa Genzken's interventie op het gebouw.

Friday, 19 February, opening of The People United Will Never Be Defeated, a topical group exhibition surrounding the municipal elections of 3 March, in which the relationship between art and politics is critically examined. Video installations, sculptures, campaign songs, art from the collections of political parties: the artists in the exhibition hound the politicians and address the political system in an explicit way. The motivation for the exhibition is the essay Post-Propaganda by Jonas Staal, with which he incites further discussion on art and politics. During the opening the pianist Bobby Mitchell plays the composition The People United Will Never Be Defeated! (1976) by composer Frederic Rzewski.
Note: Earlier in the evening Witte de With opens the exhibitions 'ACT IV: I Could Live in Africa', 'ACT V: Power Alone' and Isa Genzken's intervention in the building.
