Speech Battle

An evening on the theme of the art of political speaking.

debate
TH 13.03.2014 20:30

What is the essence of an ideal speech? What are the pitfalls a speech-writer or speaker should really avoid? What is the correct balance between emotion and reason? How do you ensure that a speech sounds as though it were written by the person delivering it? Following a lecture in which these questions are addressed, prominent Flemish and Dutch speech-writers battle for the honor of having written the best speech.

Expo politricks.

expo
7 FEB — 29 MAR 2014

The relationship between art and politics is of all times and cultures. Over the centuries, artists have tried to explain political events, adopted political stances, criticised the political system or are themselves at the centre of political controversy. The work of Goya, Picasso's Guernica or - more recently - the Pussy Riot-performances in Russia spring to mind.
