Home to some of the city's most iconic architecture, from Gothic to Post-Modern and from Beaux-Arts to Art Deco (lots of Art Deco). it's not difficult to understand why.

Performance | Performance Art: Senga Nengudi


Senga Nengudi's "RSVP" series was originally made in Los Angeles in the 1970s. Made of pantyhose and attached to the wall, the works were originally activated by Nengudi and artist Maren Hassinger who moved through the composition and explored the materiality of this flexible yet restrictive material. Highlighting ideas of transference and memory, this new work in the series is activated by Rashaun Mitchell, Regina Rocke and Marýa Wethers, who participated in an intensive workshop with Nengudi and Hassinger to build the work.
