Curator Tour: Water After All
@ Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago
220 E Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60611
Opening Tuesday, January 7th, from 12PM - 1PM
Join Jack Schneider, MCA Curatorial Assistant, for an in-depth tour of Water After All.
Primarily featuring works from the MCA Collection, this exhibition is centered around our recent acquisition of Ghana-born British filmmaker John Akomfrah’s Vertigo Sea. Presented in a spellbinding, three-screen installation, Akomfrah uses archival images, nature cinematography, and staged recreations; crossing time and space to reveal the poetic awe and horror of humanity’s relationship with water. The artworks surrounding Vertigo Sea expand the exhibition’s thematic focus, diving deeper into our reliance on, exploitation of, and contact with our precious environment.
**This event is free with admission. Illinois residents enjoy free admission on Tuesdays.**
