"At the start of outset of her artistic career Anne-Mie van Kerckhoven was guided by a mood of punk, New Wave and noise music whose cultural-historical significance actually put that of the fine arts temporarily in the shade, at a time when the 'white cube' was no longer a topic. To this day, Anne-Mie van Kerckhoven's exhibition spaces are also a continuation of a confrontational and sensual severity rooted in her musical and stage performances. ... In every presentation of her works, this artist studies the framework conditions very precisely. She paints the walls in a shade that intensifies the content and force of her two dimensional images. ... Each space is a mediation model."
Susanne Titz, 2004
