Simone Leigh: The Waiting Room
On view through September 8
Fifth Floor
In her work, Simone Leigh considers an expanded notion of medicine that includes self-determination of the mind and body, and that is inspired by the work of black women and social movements from the past and present. In conjunction with “Simone Leigh: The Waiting Room,” the artist has organized a series of public and private workshops and healing treatments—which she refers to as “care sessions”—with professionals in massage therapy, acupuncture, movement, and herbalism.
Care sessions are free with paid admission to the New Museum. Registration will be available in the Lobby half an hour before each session. Space is limited, and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please check the calendar or email waitingroom@newmuseum.org for more information.
