Antwerpen 1958-1969 - ICC Antwerpen 1993
Organized in 1993 by ICC, this international exhibition was devised by Yves Aupetitallot, Iwona Blazwick and Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev within the framework of ANTWERP 93. Its title "On Taking a Normal Situation and Retranslating it into Overlapping and Multiple Readings of Conditions Past and Present", was inspired by Gordon Matta Clark who made one of his final works in the city, and which in turn led to the foundation of M HKA. In some ways the subject of this exhibition was ‘the exhibition’. What it proposed, however, was a new relation between structure, location, context, artist and audience. All the participants has created works specially fort his event. Other cultural forces such as music, architecture, mass media, urban renovation, even gastronomy weave between the exhibition, the museum and the city. Projects by emerging artists were juxtaposed with the actions of a previous artistic community. An interplay was set up between the local and the international, margin and centre, communities and individuals.
