Les artistes invités se sont vite emparés de ces questions et, après une longue hésitation, ont choisi de faire appel à la médiation d’un critique, commissaire fictif : Storm Van Helsing. Cette médiation a permis la rédaction d’un texte commun qui explicite la position choisie par les artistes pour répondre à l’invitation.
