Introduced by KJ Relth and Mark Toscano

“Beginning with her best-known short and ending with her last completed work, this program highlights Hammer’s playful, unfolding dialogue between corporeality and artistic method. Employing double exposure, optical printing, computer animation, and unexpected structural elements, these seven works offer a primer on Hammer’s visual imagination and career-long fascination with the scintillating power of touch.”—KJ Relth and Mark Toscano
