In 1994 Meg Stuart received an invitation from curator Bart Debaere to participate to the exhibition This is the Show and the Show is Many Things / Extra Muros at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Gent (B). The exhibition showed work of twelve artists: Honoré d'O, Anne Decock, Luc Tuymans, Henrietta Lehtonen, Fabrice Hybert, Eran Schaerf, Uri Tzaig, Suchan Kinoshita, Maria Roosen, Mark Manders, Louise Bourgeois and Jason Rhoades.

Meg Stuart's contribution can be described as a 'dance installation', or as ten hours of continuous presence. Approximately eighteen actions were dispersed throughout the museum, performed by dancers, non-dancers, actors and artists. As the visitor walked through the museum he simultaneously walked through (and into) the performance. It is his pace - not the choreographers - that determined the perimeters of each action. Each room in the exhibition -each corner, each corridor - was a viable stage. As the actions were concerned with issues of absence, exposure and privateness, so too were the many in between placements that question notions of presentation. Some actions were improvised, others completely set. Some integrated physical concepts from the artists, such as Suchan Kinoshita's 'Loud Speaker', others were placed inside artists' works. Some actions the visitors hardly noticed. Collectively the dance can be seen as physical notes on the exhibition.
