Nick Cave: Forothermore

Tuesday, March 2, 7:00 p.m. via Zoom

Nick Cave has become internationally celebrated for his elaborate installations and textile works, including his iconic Soundsuits, which blend sculpture, costume design, and instrument-making. Forothermore, the artist’s first survey exhibition will cover the entire breadth of his career. The title is a new word that reflects the artist’s lifelong commitment to creating space for those who feel marginalized by dominant society and culture—especially working-class communities and queer people of color.
