Please join artist Carlos Martiel for the premiere of his durational performance, Arquitectura para un cuerpo (2022). This work is a site-specific response to the history of Western museums, their relationships to imperial expansion, and their history in objectifying and displaying human subjects and artworks from colonized and racialized nations.
Some aspects of this performance may be emotionally triggering. Viewing discretion is advised.
Free, no tickets required. Drop by anytime from 6 to 8 p.m
