“The Smallest Show in Kassel, Germany”

The exhibition, titled “Fragments from Nowhereland” (and not actually part of Documenta, to be clear), featured work by 20 artists, including luminaries like Yoko Ono, Thomas Schütte, and Jimmie Durham, all installed on two sides of a kind of bulletin board encased in a vitrine. It was “edited”—as opposed to curated—by Paolo Falcone, and was presented by Produzentengalerie Hamburg, Fondazione Sambuca Palermo, and Galerie Utopia Athens. Sadly, it ran for only two days.
