Event description

In conjunction with the exhibition "Healing, Knowing, Seeing the Body," the Spencer Museum of Art commissioned Houston-based artist Dario Robleto to create a new work of art. "The Aorta of an Archivist" is an immersive film and sound installation that connects Robleto’s research on the cosmos, the human heart, and the history of recording our bodies. In this talk, Robleto takes us through his research and process, to the boundaries of outer and inner space, and across thresholds once believed impassable to question where our observational limits lie. To view "The Aorta of an Archivist," make a reservation to visit the galleries at https://www.spencerart.ku.edu/plan-your-visit#reservation. This event includes live closed captions in English.
