ADN Galería will participate in LOOP-Video Art Fair with a selection of videoworks by DEMOCRACIA (20th - 22nd of May 2010). Ne vous laissez pas consoler (Do not allow yourselves to be consoled) is a project by the collective from Madrid, Democracia, composed by Pablo España and Iván López (2006).

The project begins with the collaboration between Democracia and the Ultramarines association, hooligans of the football team Girondins from Bordeaux. Democracia proposed an intervention, consisting in the introduction of political sentences into a completely unusual context: a football stadium in full activity, questioning the logical structure of the show. These sentences were exhibited during the match between Girondins de Bordeaux and Rennes on September 27th 2009, using the merchandising products of the French team, their colors, designs and iconography. Customized carves, flags, banderoles, t-shirts and stickers were shown at a mobile stand located at the surroundings of the stadium.
 
The sentences were: "Do not allow yourselves to be consoled"; "The truth is always revolutionary"; "No idols"; "They rule because we obey"; "We have nothing except our time"; "Pain is the only nobility"; "The main battlefield is the enemy's mind".
 
The aim of this action consists in observing the course of the show itself, seeing how the introduction of some references, at first quite remote from the football context despite being transmitted through a familiar media, can change the stream of the game.
