Jonas Staal (1981) studied monumental art in Enschede (NL) and Boston. He is currently a PhD researcher in contemporary propaganda at the University of Leiden (NL). His work includes interventions in public space, exhibitions, lectures, and publications, focusing on the relationship between art, politics and ideology. His essay Post-propaganda (Fonds BKVB, 2009) and publication Power?... To Which People?! (Jap Sam Books, 2010) provides the theoretical basis for this line of work. Staal’s latest publication is Art, Property of Politics III: Closed Architecture (Onomatopee, 2011) on the architectonic work of the right-wing politician Fleur Agema, co-produced by Extra City Kunsthal Antwerpen. His projects were exhibited in among other the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven and the David Roberts Art Foundation in London. He regularly publishes in newspapers and magazines, such as NRC Handelsblad, de Groene Amsterdammer and Metropolis M. Staal lives and works in Rotterdam.
