Join us at the opening reception to celebrate An Inventory of Shimmers: Objects of Intimacy in Contemporary Art. This exhibition is curated by Henriette Huldisch.

An Inventory of Shimmers: Objects of Intimacy in Contemporary Art brings together a group of twelve international artists to examine the recent multidisciplinary turn towards affect by focusing on art works that explore how bodies are shaped, modified, or affected by the intensity of their interaction.
