Curator Tour of No Bodies: Clothing as Disruptor

Join Alva Greenberg, curator of the exhibition, and HRM Assistant Curator Shilpi Chandra for an interactive tour of No Bodies: Clothing as Disruptor. Greenberg and Chandra will delve into ​​how the altered and uninhabited clothing on view disrupts our automatic responses by challenging perceptions of materiality, cultural identity, relationships, political beliefs, and portraiture itself.
