Younes Baba-Ali – Warmoes Biënnale

Multiculturalism / Multicommunitarianism (2014) & Everyone is called Mohamed (2014)

In Multiculturalism / Multicommunitarism, an LED text alternates between the two words in the rhythm of urban advertising, confronting passersby with tensions within multicultural society.

Everyone is called Mohamed is a sound installation in which the name Mohamed is repeatedly heard, evoking a direct, physical response and inviting interaction.

Both works by Younes Baba-Ali are context-specific interventions that question societal structures and the public itself.

De Brakke Grond, the Flemish cultural center in Amsterdam, has been presenting contemporary art from Flanders since 1981. This pavilion is a collaboration with the Flemish cultural center De Brakke Grond.
