From April 3th till June 13th the S.M.A.K. will be exhibiting the artwork of the American artist Ed Templeton. The opening of the show titled The Cemetery of Reason, took place last Friday evening.

We were not the only visitors for the opening, it was a crowded house at the S.M.A.K. The audience tried to navigate through the story of a pro skateboarder, a photographer, a drawer, a painter, etc ..

Templeton mainly documented his own life and those of the people around him. The show exposes naked photos, young people doing naughty things and provocative imagery. I think skateboarders like the naked truth...

I would thoroughly recommend a visit to this show!
