Gimme, Gimme, Gimme Part 2

The three-part exhibition Gimme, Gimme, Gimme explores how we could look at possessions and ownership in a different way. Following a brief re-installation, we will soon be opening part two, which expands upon the story and the displays in part one.

In this edition, we put the museum to the test through six proposals that speculate on radically different approaches to collecting and preservation. These thought experiments are based on real-world examples from museum practice. Each one offers an alternative to the current situation, in which museum storage facilities are overloaded and artworks rarely leave the museum. The surprising proposals lead to one conclusion: things could be different!

The artworks in this exhibition help to broaden our perspective. In addition to the pieces from part one by Maarten Vanden Eynde, Beatrijs Lauwaert, Jacoba van Heemskerck and Paul and Menno de Nooijer, part two includes new works by artists such as Anaïs Borie, Louis Heymans, Aram Lee and Ottonie von Roeder. The final instalment of Gimme, Gimme, Gimme will open in April 2027.

Come and see the new edition from Saturday 14 November. There is free admission on this day and a variety of activities to take part in.
