Movements for Staying Alive brings together new commissions alongside recent and historical works, which value the importance of movement as a means to learn, connect, and foster a sense of community. Rather than focusing solely on visual experience, this exhibition encourages you to engage with the artworks through your body. Together, the artworks create an environment that prioritises the bodily experience of space, ideas, and artwork, rather than privileging sight over other senses. Ana Mendieta’s work is included alongside artist such as Harold Offeh, Valie Export and Yvonne Rainer.
