2026-1
“SHIMA is the first iteration of a new exhibition series exploring Okinawan life in relation to Hawaiʻi, Uchinā, and the Moana.  Part 1 explores shima not only as an ʻisland’ or ‘village’ – but as a relational space and a psychic condition, being held by more than one place and time at once – as Okinawan identity in Hawaiʻi is shaped by plantation histories, U.S. militarization, community organizing and resistance, being local, and emergent conversations around Indigeneity.”  Read More

Notes for Tomorrow

ICI
2021-05 – PRESENT
Notes for Tomorrow is an exhibition conceived by ICI that takes the events of 2020 as a jumping-off point for a radical reassessment of our present. In 2020, ICI turned to our worldwide network of curators and asked them to share one artwork they believe is vital to be seen today. The resulting exhibition features artworks selected by thirty curators from around the globe that take on many of the issues that have moved to the fore in the pandemic's aftermath. In this necessary moment of cultural transition, each work is a source of inspiration from the recent past towards new futures. ->
