Celebrate the Middle East and North Africa with the New Radicalism festival.
Radical new insights are a necessity if we are to live in a brighter tomorrow. So we’re more than thrilled that this February art cafe MONO will host Rotterdam’s new progressive festival. New Radicalism will span over four days and centre on up-coming talent in digital art and culture, whose origins lie in the Middle East, North Africa, and the European Diaspora. The presented artists’ visions challenge Western stereotypes and raise an alternative voice for art and culture. The rich program encompasses various art forms alongside lectures, panels, and workshops, providing an intimate yet interdisciplinary atmosphere. Can’t get enough? In the evening you can treat your ears to some beautiful melodies by Ta-Ra, Mechatok, Guerda Guerda, and numerous other DJs and live acts. Don’t miss out on this one!
