Some of the works were already
conceptualized and realized before the exhibition (Charles
Citron, Isijanin &Isijanin, Theo Schepens), although they got their
final shape after being exposed in the new space of 500 m.2, which
allowed a selection of endless combinations imposed by the space
itself and by the communication among the participants. Some works
were fitted to the new concept (Mirna Arsovska, Elizabeta
Avramovska, Robert Duyf), while the work of Elena Beelaerts was
created according to the space of the gallery including the museum
hall and with antic statues. Every work on their own way but also
they all together reflect the basic idea by the curator Biljana P.
Isijanin to play with the endless possibilities and to define the
in-between space, where there is no place for ultimate end, without
matter how great it is, but on a contrary, representing the
continuing effort to gain something just because of the game and not
for the gain - If as an endless treatment of all the events that
could happen after the saying of this word.
