TRISTIN LOWE
"Black Holes & Rabbit Holes" closed on March 20. If you didn't make it to Moore's campus to see the show in person, no worries! You can explore the historic exhibition virtually. For the very first time, we turned over all of Moore's ground floor gallery spaces to a single artist. This mid-career retrospective placed a medley of Lowe's existing works—alongside never-before-seen projects—into newly imagined tableaus. Inspired by Moore's architecture and defined by its structural limitations, the exhibition invited viewers to experience a wholly immersive invasion of the artist’s large-scale constructed forms.Support for our general operations and public programming is generously provided by the Philadelphia Cultural Fund.
