Translation: "Me and Adriaan protesting in front of the first Art Fair. Even the police couldn't get us to leave. About 1982 or 1983. Adriaan and me; side by side."
Nico explains more: "was een kunst beurs in amsterdam een van de eerste wij ik en adriaan mochten er niet op staan dus uit protest deden we dit we hadden ook plastic tassen laten maken met mijn gallery toen nog G I N heette en adriaan zijn winkel maar nog niet de naam torch.
de beurs mensen vonden het niet leuk en stuurde de politie op ons af maar slim dat we waren hadden een vergunning gekregen . plus de tasjes dat was het mooiste iedere bezoeker had er een en liep in de beurs met onze naam niet slecht nico "

Translation: "It was one of the first art fairs in Amsterdam. We (Adriaan and me) were not allowed to participate. Out of protest: we had a tent outside the artfair (at the entry). We had also made plastic bags with my gallery name on it (which was then called GIN and Adriaan had his shop which was not named Torch yet.)
The artfair people did not like what we did and they sent the police at us. But we were smarter and had obtained a permit. With the plastic bags: the most satisfying was that every visitor on the fair was running around with our names. Not bad. Nico "
