A Multisensory Experience at the Opening of the Onassis Foundation’s Festival, Fall 2015

My Writing and Curatorial Portfolio

In early October, 2015 New York’s Onassis Foundation hosted a festival in its newly renovated Atrium and gallery to mark the reopening of its Cultural Center. The festival, entitled Narcissus Now: the Myth Reimagined, consisted of an unforgettable opening ceremony and art exhibition, followed by several talks and lectures by renowned scholars and professionals in a variety of cultural and artistic fields, all revolving around the concept of ‘narcissism.’
This intriguing and unique opening ceremony was documented and analyzed in the article “A Multisensory Experience at the Opening of the Onassis Foundation’s Festival, Fall 2015” for all who saw, and all who missed it in an article for IFA Contemporary.
