Alaaf! Stedelijk Museum Breda becomes Stedelijk Museum Kielegat!
What does carnaval mean to you? And what does the future of this celebration look like? Together with photographer Vincen Beeckman and various organizations in Breda, we will explore this. We’ll examine the meaning of carnaval and similar celebrations through the eyes of people from different backgrounds.
Similar traditions and festivals are celebrated around the world, and these celebrations also take place in our own city. Themes such as identity, hierarchy, gender, and solidarity are central. During carnaval, the people are given the key to the city, we decide who we want to be, choose our own prince, and head into the streets to celebrate. But how do other cultures express these same themes? Together, we’ll dive into the diverse world of carnaval.
