Exhibition

Here is a Gale Warning: Art, Crisis & Survival

22 March – 29 June 2025, 11am – 5pm

This exhibition presents eight contemporary artists whose works offer vantage points on a world in perpetual crisis. Rather than representing specific political events, or taking singular positions, each artist in this exhibition explores broader conditions of domination and conflict, as well as horizons for survival.

I’ve never seen Arke, Finn-Kelcey and Vicuña exhibited together before, and their grouping feels poignant and elegiac.
