In the 'Shadow Cabinet' a selection from the archive of De Appel is on show. This selection includes videos, photos, press documents and correspondence related to activities in De Appel that were informed by notions of feminism, stemming from both the period of the directorship of Wies Smals (1975 - 1983) and Saskia Bos (1984 - 2006).
Artists that within this frame are presented include amongst others Carolee Schneemann, Martha Wilson, Gina Pane, Moniek Toebosch and Joan Jonas. The selection is made by the curators in collaboration with Nell Donkers. The archive is presented within the context of an installation made by Stefanie Seibold.
