Run, don’t walk. This exhibition brought me to tears. Käthe Kollwitz Through Jul 20th at MoMA, Floor 3, NY NY Focusing on themes of motherhood, grief, and resistance, she brought visibility to the working class and asserted the female point of view as a necessary and powerful agent for change. “I have no right to withdraw from the responsibility of being an advocate,” she wrote. “It is my duty to voice the sufferings of men, the never-ending sufferings heaped mountain-high.” – Kathe Kollwitz Organized by Starr Figura, Curator, with Maggie Hire, Curatorial Assistant, Department of Drawings and Prints

🤦♀️ FRIDAY ! 💫 from 6pm-8pm Don’t we touch each other just to prove we are still here? Opens at Art On Hulfish. Come say hi if you’re near Princeton. Princeton University Art Museum 11 May – 4 August Curated by Susannah Baker-Smith and Susan Bright The title of this exhibition is a line from the poem ‘On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous’ by the Vietnamese American poet, essayist, and novelist Ocean Vuong. Threaded throughout the poem are feelings of longing, rapture and pain, the knowledge that it is through touch that we find ourselves, not just our physical selves, but who we are, our humanity as well as our vulnerability. This exhibition takes up the question ‘Don’t we touch each other just to prove we are still here? for this exhibition, and explore its aliveness and complexity through the framing of materiality, affect, embodiment and collaboration in relation to touch and photography. To touch is always to be touched, our bodies are always responding to our environment in some way. Touch is a mutual tool for social connection, a way to communicate, it is also our means of feeling embodied, and the vehicle for intimacy. The haptic, however, is not immediately associated with photography, but we propose that it has a significant relationship with the medium, one that can be inclusive and diverse, spanning all kinds of relationships, as well as different processes and approaches. As Merleau-Ponty observes, “since the same body sees and touches, visible and tangible belong to the same world”.
