According to legend, how did sisal that artist Kapwani Kiwanga used for her installation White Gold: Morogoro get to Africa? Why did Alina Szapocznikow decide to use chewing gum as a material for her sculptures? And why is fragility not necessarily a weakness?

Join us for another guided tour of the fragilités exhibition with one of its curators, Silvia Van Espen, on Thur, December 8 from 6:00 pm. Admission is free.

The tour will be held in Slovak.
