Description
A group of 32 international artists (including Damian Ortega, Angela Bulloch, Paulina Olowska, and Richard Serra), working across multiple media (from sculpture to film, video, drawing, and photography), present works related to Herman Melville's epic novel. More than half of the participating artists have created new works specifically for this show in response to the novel's wide-ranging and evocative themes. The exhibition will also feature numerous historical artifacts and documents.
