More and more join. They run and run. They are the image of the imminent African exodus. Soon climate, wars and economic crises will force the Africans towards the north, and in herds they will overflow the borders to Europe.<\/p>\n<p>This is roughly how the future looks if you follow refugee debates in Europe. And this is what it looks like when a Dutch artist sets a bunch of Nigerians to act out our fear scenarios on film. But what does the world look like if we ask the Africans themselves?<\/p>\n<p>The award-winning Dutch performance artist Dries Verhoeven went to Lagos in Nigeria with his prejudices in his backpack to create a performance about the African refugees on the move. But the Nigerians turned it all around. While the problems pile up in one of the world&#8217;s fastest growing metropolises, he saw a people bursting with energy and optimism &#8211; who think that Europeans&#8217; worries about tomorrow are foolish. They are full of faith in the future of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Are Nigerians fantasizing against better judgment? Or are we Europeans too focused on preserving the past?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dear Beloved Friend&#8221; is a live film about their prejudices about us and our prejudices about them. About them and us. Dries Verhoeven lets us spy on each other through the camera, and across thousands of kilometres we are suddenly present in the same time and space. Probably closer to each other than we have ever been before.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-25481\" src=\"https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres.jpeg\" alt=\"Dries Verhoeven Dear Beloved Friend Metropolis 2023\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres-300x168.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres-1024x575.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres-768x431.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres-1536x862.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres-700x393.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/StudioDriesVerhoeven-KininsoKoncepts-Dearbelovedfriend-stillD-lowres-1100x618.jpeg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>ABOUT THE ARTISTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/driesverhoeven.com\/en\/about\/\">Dries Verhoeven<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is one of the most sought after and debated artists on the European performance scene. He is known for taking a stranglehold on taboos through his works. Homosexuality, pedophilia, religion, refugees.<\/p>\n<p>He was most recently in Denmark in 2015, where Metropolis presented <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metropolis.dk\/en\/ceci-nest-pas-dries-verhoeven\/\">\u201dCeci n\u2019est pas\u2026\u201d<\/a>, where every day for 10 days he exhibited a human being in a glass box in the middle of Str\u00f8get. A transgender, a pregnant teenager, a child soldier, a praying Muslim, etc. A work that made thousands stop and wonder.<\/p>\n<p>He creates debate wherever he travels with his works, which span performance, visual arts and film. His statements are never unequivocal, but will push the viewer off balance by challenging the prevailing norms. He wants to create change, not stories.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dear Beloved Friend&#8221; he created together with Nigerian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kininsokoncepts.com\/about\/\"><strong>Kininso Koncepts<\/strong><\/a> and a film crew from Nollywood, the heart of the African film industry. Kininso Koncepts proved to be as uncompromising as Verhoeven and refused to be portrayed as refugees. Their mission is to tell authentic stories from today&#8217;s Africa that challenge the status quo and inspire both locally and globally.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NB!
