Gallery Vriend van Bavink invites you to the exhibition Everybody wants to rule the world. This group exhibition on propaganda will open on Friday 5 September at 16:00 and will be open during Gallery Night on the same evening.

With the upcoming elections and a collapsed government in mind, this is a moment to reflect on the forces that shape our convictions and ‘truth’ in the world. How do narratives, relationships, and media influence our beliefs often without our awareness? In these uncertain times, with information overload, understanding propaganda becomes not just relevant, but essential.

Participating artists include:

Aldert Mantje & Peter Kempff (G4), Anouk Kruithof, Celine van den Boorn, Folkert de Jong, Joseph Hughes, Koos Buster, Peim van der Sloot, Sam Andrea, Thijs Linssen, Timoteus Anggawan Kusno, Willem de Haan
