These Socks Not White
Works from the Van Abbemuseum collection are featured in the exhibition These socks not white (Deze sokken niet wit), organised by the artistic duo Bik Van der Pol. The exhibition focuses on the period 1924-1929, the so-called “roaring twenties”. The years 1924 - 1929 were characterised by great innovation and growth, but was equally a time a of increasing cultural conflict, rising nationalism and economic crisis. As such, there are striking similarities between then and now.
These works are exhibited alongside texts and visual material from the archives of the International Institute of Social History (IISG) in Amsterdam, and films from the period. A walking route will take visitors through parts of Eindhoven, passing by contemporaneous buildings including churches, apartments, a bridge, de Witte Dame, and the former Philips factories at Strijp-S.
