What's Happening?
The Duet exhibition has launched in Manhattan's Financial District, featuring 11 galleries and a group show. The exhibition occupies the third and fourth floors of the WSA building and aims to rethink artists' works through unique pairings. Organized by curators Zoe Lukov and Kyle DeWoody, Duet showcases thematic connections between artists, including Marina Abramović, Lynda Benglis, and Maya Lin. The exhibition emphasizes experimental presentations and collaborations, with galleries occupying glass-walled meeting rooms to display paired artworks.
