Join us on Friday 24 May at 5-9 pm for the opening of the new exhibition Impaired Erotics by the young LA-based artist Panteha Abareshi at O—Overgaden.

In arresting sculptural and filmic gestures, Panteha Abareshi (US, 1999, they/them) employs the experience of living in a chronically ill body, unpicking the associated stigma in their visual arts practice as well as scholarly writing. 

During the evening, you can hear Abareshi talk about their practice, in a conversation with O—Overgaden’s leader Rhea Dall.

The bar will be open serving cold refreshments – beer, wine and water.

Program:

17.00 – Impaired Erotics opens

17.30 – Panteha Abareshi in conversation with Rhea Dall

21.00 – Thank you and goodnight
