Apr 11 – Oct 8, 2018

Malka Architecture / The Green Machine, 2014

In MAAT / Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology’s, first collaboration with several European museums, the Eco-Visionaries: Art and Architecture after the Anthropocene project is centered on current practices that propose critical and creative visions vis-à-vis the environmental transformations that are disturbing our planet.

At a moment when climate changes are even more widely felt, Eco-Visionaries launch the debate on a vast array of questions associated with the Anthropocene – the recent designation for a geological period defined by the impact of human action. With contributions from over thirty five artists and architects, the show in Lisbon is the first and most wide-ranging of the four exhibitions that will appear simultaneously in Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and Sweden.

    Sep 14, 2023 – Jan 7, 2024
    KW Institute for Contemporary Art
    Berlin, Germany

    Skin In The Game presents seminal prototypes from the personal archives of internationally acclaimed artists, dating back to the 1970s and crossing over into the present. The exhibits include experiments never previously shown, from paintings to sculptures, to banners, video performances, photographs, collages, drawings, books, and concept notes.
