Shia LaBeouf launches four-year anti-Trump protest performance outside Museum of Moving Image

Shia LaBeouf initiated a continuous protest performance titled HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US (2017) outside the Museum of Moving Image in New York. The Hollywood actor, known for Transformers and art-style happenings, conceived the work as a response to Donald Trump's presidency. A camera installed near the museum films participants repeating the phrase 'he will not divide us,' with live footage streamed around the clock. The performance is scheduled to run for the entire duration of Trump's first term as U.S. president. Jaden Smith, actor and son of Will Smith, became the first participant in this public engagement. Artnet reported on the project, which frames its title as a unifying mantra intended to foster solidarity. The work invites public participation as a form of political resistance through durational performance art.
