"How self-evident is it to be able to wear something? How self-evident is it to make something the subject of an exhibition? And is that self-evidence the same for different people?"
In this interview, Concrete Blossom founder Malique Mohamud elaborates on the collaboration between his platform and Het Nieuwe Instituut, the on-site programme they've developed around the exhibition The Hoodie and the opportunities and pitfalls of exhibiting themes from youth and counter cultures in the context of a museum.
