The Yes Men

Over the course of the last 25 years, through absurdist humor coupled with a knack for tweaking the social constraints of polite society, the Yes Men’s uncivil interruptions into the constant flow of corporate and political doublespeak are high-wire acts made in defense of civil society. Flipping the business-as-usual script and showing the world both as it is and as it could be, the Yes Men’s project, through three feature-length films and numerous interventions widely covered by mainstream media, embraces an idealism and political urgency that is neither sentimental nor self-righteous, while expressing an endless fascination with the revolutionary power of a great punch line. Carriage trade is very pleased to present this exhibition featuring their work.
