Strijd (pronounced Stride) in Dutch means: struggle/fight
The Strijd ∞ exhibition gives a visual overview  of the Maagdenhuis’ history of protests, other student and staff protests, and the now proliferating Strijd ∞ exhibition itself. Similar gestures can be observed in various times and locations. As an art-historical initiative, Strijd ∞ thus shows its rootedness in Warburgian thinking, combined with contemporary solidarity.
