Catalogue to the revolutionary exhibition ‘This is the show and the show is many things’ curated by Bart de Baere at S.M.A.K., Ghent (Sep. 17 1994 - Nov. 27 1994), which one review described as “a fun palace, a rumpus room, a discount warehouse, a museum without walls, a wasteland and a Wunder-Kabinett of the marvellous and the inconsequential.” Thirteen participating artists contributed physical works, ephemeral interventions, and installations, the presentation of which morphed and shifted throughout the duration of the exhibition. This show about process, collaboration, chance encounter, and whimsy was an exceptional example of a particularly intelligent and risky strain of experimentation exploring the limits of how the viewer - and artists themselves - might interact within an exhibition space.
