Sarah Vanhee - Lecture For Every One-20

In an increasingly fragmented society beset by ongoing transformative “crises”, is it possible to address people collectively other than through rules and laws, simplistic political messages, mainstream media or advertising? Lecture For Every One-20 is one such attempt. Conceived for the Kunstenfestivaldesarts in 2013, Sarah Vanhee’s Lecture For Every One is now being passed on to a new generation and appropriated by a group of teenagers. The original proposition remains unchanged however in the form “guerrilla” moments where someone unexpectedly turns up in different places where meetings are already being held for professional or private purposes (a sports club, lecture, union meeting etc.) and “hijacks” their agenda for around fifteen minutes to read Lecture For Every One-20. In this new text, the young people tackle their preoccupations with our collective life and current forces acting on the human condition in order to rethink an ethics for living together. In the frame of News From Home of Kunstenfestivaldesarts, the teenagers and Sarah Vanhee present a performance that reconstructs these “guerrilla” moments in which political reflections collide and blends together what the young people shared in the places of their choice.
