The city had pumped 'millions' into the project, but there was no attempt to involve young artists or for young people in general, and we didn't like that.  The group that took part in this action was larger, some seventeen of us.  Walter Van Beirendonck participated too.  We followed a similar scenario as previously, and arrived one after the other at the Rubens House, where we carried out our protest.  Dressed in our 'punk outfits' we definitely stood out, and we focused on disturbing visitors out of their 'museum behavior'.  For instance, if a visitor stood admiringly in front of a painting, we'd go and stand just in front.  Or else we'd take up position for some minutes right alongside a museum guard.  Jan Jansens bought postcards at the front-desk and then tore them to shreds.  Myself, Dolf and my wife-to-be were picked up by the gendarmerie; the rest ran off as best they could.  They didn't hold us too long.  After all, what could they charge us with?  We were just visiting an exhibition.\"* - Narcisse Tordoir\r\n\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"*“De tweede actie was een reactie op het ʻRubens-jaarʼ, de stad had daar ‘miljoenen’ in gepompt, maar er waren geen initiatieven voor jonge kunstenaars of manifestaties voor jongeren en dat zinde ons niet. De groep die deze actie uitvoerde was groter, een zevental mensen, Walter Van Beirendonck heeft daar toen nog aan meegedaan. We volgden een soortgelijk scenario als de vorige keer en arriveerden zo na elkaar in het Rubenshuis waar we door ons gedrag ons protest vorm gaven. Door onze ʻpunk-outfitʼ vielen we al op en onze acties waren er op gericht om de toeschouwers te storen in hun ʻmuseum-gedragʼ. Bv. als een bezoeker een schilderij stond te bekijken, gingen we ervoor staan. Of we gingen minutenlang naast een suppoost staan. Jan Jansens kocht postkaartjes aan de balie en scheurde die dan kapot. Uiteindelijk kwam iedereen samen in de tuin van het Rubenshuis en bleef daar gewoon stilstaan. Ik, Dolf en mijn latere echtgenote zijn toen opgepakt door de Rijkswacht, de rest is gaan lopen. Ze hebben ons vrij snel laten gaan want waarvan konden ze ons beschuldigen, we hadden gewoon een tentoonstelling bezocht.”* - Narcisse Tordoir"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[{"id":268,"name":"Narcisse Tordoir","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}}]}
