NEWTOPIA: The State of Human Rights Contemporary Arts Exhibition in Mechelen and Brussels 01.09. – 10.12.2012 vegetable, mineral and spirit rights? Following the “Utopian Pirate” spirit of Hakim Bey, William Burroughs, Rabelais, Hassan I Sabbah and Robert Anton Wilson I have invited guests, artists and friends into the Temporary Autonomous Zone of “Pre/Occupied” to freely express themselves through an interrogation of the human rights question. Some artists have been dragged without permission into this ideological battleground with their works détourned and reworked as any good pirate should. The right to be human should not be taken for granted as every soul takes responsibility for its own being in accordance with the natural laws of "Nothing is True, Everything is Permitted" and "Do what thou wilt". Guests include, amongst others: Marina Abramovi!, Banksy, Belinda Blignaut, Nicolas Bourthoumieux, Hakim Bey, Charlie Chaplin, Cendrine du Welz, Femen, Ganzeer, Ilse Ghekiere, Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, Barbara Kruger, Moondog, Félicien Rops, Nedko Solakov, Betty Tompkins, Raoul Vaneigem, Kara Walker, Anna Whaley, Ai Wei Wei, Sandy Williams, Zapiro. 6.
