Depression Promotion Centre 2 closed spectacularly
During the weekend of 15 till 17 of August 2008 the DPC2 presented to the general public the First Rotterdam Summerexhibition and the worldpremiere of the Bandorchestra directed by MC Wisecrack in his musical armour. Fuck the Writer & Illlitterrats edgy folkrock, The Outskirts exploded rock, Of Melancholy Burning death metal, The Rotterdam Free Jazz Ensemble & Oude Rokken (Old Skirts) 4 vocal chords embodied the first Bandorchestra.
On Sunday there was last but not least the second Foot and Mouth Disease Convention.
Then the DPC2 disappeared for the time being. Like the pheasant challenging the sunset in my video.
“Depression Promotion is merciless”
This header might sound a bit scary, but actually it’s an invitation to take a real look at the world, letting our eyes do their work uncensored. The Depression Promotion Centre is the embodiment of the optimism and healing power of the arts. It’s a homeopathic satire on “the new world order” atmosphere, reminding us that we just live in a well marketed upgrade of a concentration camp, with bar codes instead of barbed wire.
So here’s a video just to cheer you up! It’s a new world every day fucked up by old-fashioned bastards!
When? Where?
The DPC2 invites you – in the weekends from July, 25th until August, 17th 2008. You can find it in the former “Nederlands fotomuseum”, Witte de Withstraat 63 in Rotterdam.
