Q&A met Elke van Kerckvoorde

#5: Kunsthal Gent is a city where different identities collide in an ongoing exhibition without end date. New exhibitions are always a new layer in this ongoing story.|#30: Don’t work with artists who are assholes.|#75: A building is a capricious thing: it is inhabited and changed, and its existence is a tale of constant and curious transformation.|#24: We invest long-term in individual artists’ careers, working over time in different contexts. This also applies to designers / web-developers / photographers / volunteers /…|#57: Volunteers must be: cared for / hands on / ready to learn / willing to share / in it to win it / show new or old tricks.|#40: Follow the artist|#19: Have fun at the exhibition.|#37: Operate with radical transparency.|#81: Things come alive when there is friction.|#10: Don’t be obsessed with numbers.|#120: The new type of art institute cannot merely be an art museum as it has been until now, but no museum at all. The new type will be more like a power station, a producer of new energy.|#107: Build a community / scene.|#84: The White Cube is a lie.|#111: Do it together.|#61: No all male install teams.|#15: Kunsthal Gent aims to be an extension of public space.|#131: A visitor who comes back after a week might discover new additions to the exhibition.|#28: Make Contracts.|#59: Always protect the floor when painting (or pouring concrete)|#56: Take a lunch break.|#23: That’s a very interesting piece, but how would it behave in a pizza joint?|#20: Are exhibitions the most suitable form for the art that we present?|#6: Demand that visitors are active.|#112: Spaces today don’t need to be curated, but occupied.|#29: We make the program for the artist that we exhibit.|#5: Kunsthal Gent is a city where different identities collide in an ongoing exhibition without end date.
