THE ASSOCIATION IBWT WAS BORN IN 2002, A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THE SECOND IRAK WAR. IT RESULTS FROM THE JOINT WORK OF THREE ARTISTS (A.De Clerck, E.Dundic et P.Garcia Rubio). IT STARTED ATTRACTING ATTENTION DURING THE 50TH VENICE BIENNALE "Dreams and Conflicts - The Viewer's Dictatorship", VENICE, JUNE 2003.
WITH THE HELP OF A REMOTE-CONTROLLED PLANE, THEY CREATED AN HAPPENING BY PARACHUTING FAKE DOLLARS OVER THE GIARDINI. THE OFFICIAL MOTTO OF THESE GREEN NOTES HAS TURNED INTO A HURTFUL "IN BLOOD WE TRUST"
STILL IN THE GIARDINI, THEY SET UP A VAST SOUND SYSTEM SIMULATING PERFECTLY THE FLIGHT OF WAR PLANES OVER THE BIENNALE. AT THE TIME, THE INVASION OF IRAK HAD BEEN GOING ON FOR THREE MONTHS.
ON ST MARCUS PLACE, THEY ALSO THREW FAKE DOLLARS ON TO THE CROWD. THIS TIME THEY WERE DROPPED MANUALLY FROM THE TOP OF THE CAMPANILE TOWER
