Opening day: Guided tour with Goldin+Senneby
As part of the opening day of Flare-Up, Accelerator invites you to a guided tour led jointly by the artist duo Goldin+Senneby and the exhibition’s curator, Richard Julin.
Drawing on the artist’s experience of living with multiple sclerosis (MS), the exhibition title, Flare-Up, refers to a treatable aspect of the disease. While the gradual progression of the condition offers limited options for intervention, the sudden flare-ups have attracted significant interest from the pharmaceutical industry, paving the way for lucrative treatments. Flare-Up also alludes to the volatile and inflammable nature of terpenes in pine resin, which has sparked investment in genetically engineered pines as a potential source of green energy.
Saturday 8 March
The tour starts at 14:00 in the exhibition space and lasts about an hour.
Free admission, no pre-registration required.
