Documenta, Exhibition of Shadows
- A model cannot be a work; a work cannot be a model. A model can only be a model. In the Exhibition of Shadows there are no scales.
- The committee for the Exhibition of Shadows gives precedence to emancipatory projects.
- The appearance of a work in the exhibition is intended.
- Technology as such should be regarded critically.
- In the Exhibition of Shadows there are no historical references, only continuity or discontinuity. There is a possibility for citing sources.
- The committee cannot imagine anything concrete with regard to any theme of an exhibition or work.
- If a work is shown in the same room as another, or in close proximity to it, a new work is not created.
- The committee cannot explain why the phase of putting together and organizing an exhibition should be of public interest.
- The committee recognizes no difference between artificial and natural light.
- The sum of all acoustic signals present is to be accepted as a given.
