Join us for special Lunchtime Tour of our exhibition Collective Intimacy – Reviving a Live Programme on theVOV with an introduction by Director Elvira Dyangani Ose and walk-through with Curator Katherine Finerty.
For theVOV Season One, the Showroom revives their 2019 Collective Intimacy live programme in collaboration with Prada and The Vinyl Factory. The exhibition takes us on a journey in which multiple and trans-located narratives of the current Black experience and their futuristic imaginaries are the point of departure for a cosmopolitan view of the world.
