What is Still Left Unseen?, Centraal Museum, Utrecht
Talk & Performance
Registration closed, performance is open to everyone

The exhibition ‘MOED: What is Left Unseen’ is coming to an end on June 30. Therefore, on June 12th, MOED organizes an afternoon program centered around the exhibition. Together with members of the curatorial team (Nancy Jouwe, Rosemarie Buikema and Rolando Vázquez), Domitilla Olivieri and artist Iris Kensmil, we will reflect on the exhibition, and look ahead.
What insights have we gained, where do we stand now, and what comes next for us in the Dutch art world? The program will end with the performance ‘November 29, 1781’ by Brazilian artist Priscila Rezende.
