Diana Al-Hadid: Liquid City
at San Jose Museum of Art
San Jose, CA, USA
Feb 24, 2017 - Sep 24, 2017

Diana Al-Hadid is fascinated by boundaries, where something begins and ends. How do we define a space—be it architectural, sculptural, or experiential? Drawing on a panoply of art-historical and scientific references, she explores the space between two-dimensional mark-making and three-dimensional sculpture, the imagined and the real, interior and exterior, belonging and alienation, the ruin and the yet-to-be-completed. Al-Hadid’s monumental sculpture Nolli’s Orders (2012) will anchor SJMA’s central skylight gallery like a Bernini fountain in a Roman piazza. read more...

at Pérez Art Museum Miami
Downtown Miami - Miami, FL, USA

John Akomfrah: Tropikos presents the artist’s 2016 film Tropikos, which examines the original encounter between European explorers and the people of Africa in the 16th century. This large-scale video installation was filmed in the Tamar Valley and Plymouth, England—a location with significant, if often forgotten, ties to the slave industry: it is where the first British slaving excursion set sail for Africa. The region and its waterways would become England’s primary hub for the slave trade, serving as the point of departure for numerous major expeditions and as the base for the industry’s bureaucratic functions. read more...
