The Mind The Heart - Līga Spunde
In her first Dutch solo exhibition, Latvian artist Līga Spunde will transform 1646 into a ‘gym for the heart’. Through humour, sculptures, graphics and moving images, she explores why emotions have become difficult in a world obsessed with efficiency and information overload. Her answer? Empathy isn’t lost, it’s simply undertrained.
About 1646
1646 is an experimental art space in the center of The Hague. Their exhibition program shows innovative artistic practices, inviting local and international artists to make new work. Working with artists who approach complex ideas and life questions by means of fiction, humor, lots of color and play, 1646 introduces you to another way of seeing, to imagine the world differently, while embracing and celebrating the complexity of life with an open attitude. With a focus on solo projects, 1646 offers an in-depth perspective of the artist’s practice before it’s on view in big museums and exhibitions all around the world. Their experimental and free public program is dedicated to giving the artist and the visitor the trust, means and space for experiment, conversation and connection.
