You cannot always make such big exhibitions, because they consume too much time and energy.

I'm a contemporary artist and I show in art galleries and museums. I show a number of photographs and films, but I also make television programs, books and some appetizing, all with the same concept.

I don't often go to curator or artist walk-throughs of exhibitions. For a critic, it feels like cheating. I want to see shows with my own eyes, making my own mistakes, viewing exhibitions the way most of their audience sees them.

Then I started to do furniture and interiors for a friend and just to get stuff in a magazine, and then slowly started to build up and started to doing exhibitions.

Exhibitions are kind of ephemeral moments, sometimes magic moments, and when they're gone, they're gone.

One of my favourite exhibitions is called 'Do It,' which I co-curated with the artists Christian Boltanski and Bertrand Lavier 21 years ago.

I love to be in front of big galleries.

Many of the museum directors who make an impact personally curate exhibitions.

Museums, I think, are becoming more and more aware of how to turn themselves into a must-see spectacle.

I'm not an exhibitionist. But, honestly, for my art I'll do anything almost. I'll go there.
