‘I want to believe’
A performance evening during Incubate 2012, with Bas Schevers (NL), David Sherry (UK), Jean-Charles de Quillacq (F), Jodi (NL) and Pablo Wendel (D), curated by pietmondriaan.com
The performances in this exhibition are drawn from everyday situations.
While appearing to be simple, sometimes even inconspicuous acts, they attempt to show the absurd, tragi-comical sides of daily life. The artists invite us to follow their lead and believe in their stories – or not.
‘I want to believe’ will take place on Saturday the 15th of September, 19.30hrs at NS16, NS-plein 16 in Tilburg. See you there!
On February 1st 1944 Piet Mondrian died from pneumonia in New York. He was buried in Cypress Hills cemetary in Brooklyn, New York.
Today is Pietmondriaan.com’s second birthday, and we wish to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who’s been following us! Your responses so far have been great and we hope to have you back here anytime!
The beautiful picture above was sent to us by Fieke van Berkom and is part of our collection of Mondriaan-inspired miscellany. Keep those coming as well!
All the best, Michiel and Simon.

‘Shut the fuck up’ part III (Blue) by General Idea.
General Idea was a collective of three artists, Felix Partz, Jorge Zontal and AA Bronson, that existed from 1969 – 1994. General Idea’s work inhabited and subverted forms of popular and media culture, including beauty pageants, boutiques, television talk shows, trade fair pavilions and mass media. From 1987 through 1994 their work addressed the AIDS crisis. Both Zontal and Partz died of AIDS in 1994.
