Superdemocracy – The Senate of Things
01 October 2017 - 31 October 2017
de Senaat, Brussel
The exhibition SUPERDEMOCRACY engages with the collections of M HKA (Antwerp) and BPS22 (Charleroi). The exhibitions allows the voices of individual artists – both nationally and internationally – and citizens to be heard on important themes associated with the Senate and democracy. SUPERDEMOCRACY takes place in the Senate, following a path granting visitors access to prestigious places, such as the peristylium and the hemisphere, or exclusive ones like the presidential salons, the salon of the ambassadors, the office of the registrar, etc.
Curators: Bart De Baere (M HKA, Antwerp), Pierre-Olivier Rollin (BPS22, Charleroi), Paul Dujardin (BOZAR, Brussels)
