Artist Ayoung Kim (Korean, b. 1979) presents the US debut of her Delivery Dancer trilogy, renowned video installations presented for the first time together. Recognized as an artist on the vanguard of digital innovation, Kim uses generative AI, videogame engines, and live-action footage to create narratives that collide geopolitics, synthesize mythologies, and interrogate technologies.
The US premiere of Gabrielle Goliath’s (South African, b. 1983) acclaimed, ongoing video series Personal Accounts (2024–25) responds to the impacts of patriarchal violence in a range of global contexts from Johannesburg to Kyiv. Intimately documenting survivor testimonials, in collaboration with the contributors, the artist has withheld narrative speech within the videos, instead portraying the moments in between participants’ recounts: breaths, sighs, cries, humming, and even laughter. Goliath’s sonic cycles trouble false binaries of the ‘voiced’ and ‘voiceless,’ revealing the enormity of what can be conveyed in moments of perceived silence.
Join us for a new season of Winter Talks, our lecture series with distinguished speakers pushing forward critical discourse. Award-winning scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor will present this season’s final lecture, examining how a mass movement against racism in the summer of 2020 led to our current political moment. In this lecture, Dr. Taylor will discuss why she believes that movement ultimately did not break through, and how other powers seized the momentum in its place, investigating ways that lessons from recent history can mobilize the future. This event is free with RSVP.
For one night only, join us to celebrate the closing of Ayoung Kim: Delivery Driver Codex with DJ sets, dancing, and after-hours gallery access.

Experience the US debut of Ayoung Kim’s celebrated Delivery Dancer trilogy, renowned video installations that use videogame engines, generative AI, and live-action footage to examine the evolving relationships between data, human beings, and the environment.
