Museum Forms establishes a dialogue between photographers Paul Clemence (Brazil) and Julien Spiewak (France) about the perception of space inside and outside international museums. In this context, space is visualized as incorporating both interior and exterior architectural components. It is also explored as an invitation to reflect upon the purpose of museums and question how aesthetics influences our appreciation of institutional collections.

Dialogues on a Future Communication
Multidisciplinary and discursive exhibition by Berlin-based sculptor Jenny Brockmann, exploring diverse knowledge bases and how seemingly unrelated data may be critically interwoven.
Brockmann crafted Seat #16, a sculpture with 16 individual seats connected by eight intersecting beams that each support two seats which must be at equilibrium. During four events, the audience was invited to occupy Seat #16 together with participating cultural practitioners and scientists from the US and Germany who shared their knowledge in order to engender an emotional, intellectual, and possibly existential temporary connection with each other.
Participants: Mario Gooden, RRC, Daniel Kronauer, Dina Shvetsov, Sheen Levine, Jes Fan,
Stephanie Dinkins, Shelley Niro, Beldan Sezen, Birgit Möckel, Elizabeth Povinelli, Tasha Douge,
Alexander Manewitz, Luciana Solano and Danielle WuJenny Brockmann: Dialogues on a Future Communication was curated by Niama Safia Sandy, commissioned by 1014 Inc. and funded by Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe and by Willms Neuhaus Foundation, Berlin. The exhibition catalog was published by Konnotation Press.

Residency Unlimited brings together New York-based artists from different areas of the globe who explore ideas of potentiality in a world dominated by cultural alienation. At Dynamis, independent curator, Luciana Solano, display works interconnected in areas that transcend the artists' studio practices by speaking about feelings of aspirations, belonging, displacement and power, as well as women’s agency in domestic spaces. Artists featured are Rashwan Abdelbaki (Syria), Chantal Feitosa (NYC/Brazil), Kyung-jin Kim (NYC/South Korea), Cansu Korkmaz (NYC/Turkey), and Angélica Maria Millán Lozano (NYC/Colombia).
This exhibition was made possible with support from the National Endowment for the Arts /Artworks Grant, The Cultural Development Fund from NYC Department of Cultural Affairs, The Shelley & Donald Rubin Foundation and The New York City, Safe Haven Prototype coalition.

Virgilio Gallery presents the exhibition “Fica, vai ter bolo!” by artist Carolina Paz. The name derives from an expression that translates into “Stay, there will be cake!”. The expression is used, in Brazil, when a guest states he is to leave the party and the host tries to make him stay further, “until cake is served”. The exhibition shows Paz’s paintings from the last two years, as well as a collaborative artwork she proposed to twenty other people.
