FRIOUR project 13 is on rebellion, contestation, protest in all its meanings: artistic, political, social, cultural, historical and present ones. I dedicate this 2012 project to all mail artists who have told me they like my art but PLEASE Guido stay away from politics! They are forgetting that all the great art movements of the modern past (Dada, Surrealism, Cobra, Situationism) were involved in attempts to change society. So REBEL REBEL aka the essence of art expressions by artists in society

Rebellion with nudity
From Superhero, USA
Controversial topic? Yes and NO!
Russian women activists are protesting in the nude against KGB lilliputter Poetin and his tugs, labeled by the European commission as a factor of stability!
During the carnival n Seattle there is or was a tradition of a nude bike racing parade,
the police arrested only the women,
clearly the femail nude body is subversive while the male one is accepted by power...

A rebel once called Demosthenes
Painting and poem made for Liza Leyla
Liza,
Het draagvlak van de tijd
loopt mank.
De kreupele stotteraar vertelt
aan de bedelstenen van de vergeetput
hoe hij ooit Demosthenes was,
welsprakend sprankelend,
maar dan verkoos terug
te zwijgen, zwoegend omwille van
het trotse onrecht in de wereld.
Het opgedroogde zweet
in het rode korenveld
is hiervan stil en getuige.
Guido Vermeulen
