Middle Gate
The exhibition project Middle Gate II – The Story of Dymphna is a collaboration between M HKA (Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp) and the cultural centre de Werft in Geel. Middle Gate II is the follow up to the exhibition Middle Gate, curated by Jan Hoet in Geel in 2013. The exhibition concept is closely tied to the legend of the holy Dymphna, saint of the possessed, the mentally ill and patroness against epilepsy and insanity. The legend of Dymphna shares a strong connection to the identity of Geel, "the charitable city".

F.I.U. Antwerp published two postcards with projects by Luc Deleu, Het Museum voor Kapotte Kunst (The Museum of Broken Art) and Voorstel voor een wereldwijd windmolen net (Proposal for a global wind mill network). Not coicidentally, postcards were Beuys' preferred medium for the dissemination of his images and ideas.
