Tino Sehgal: This You
Tino Seghal: This You will mark the first exclusively live work for the Hirshhorn’s permanent collection in the 44-year history of the museum. Sehgal’s exhibit will feature a solo female singer on the Hirshhorn’s Plaza and in the Sculpture Garden connecting with visitors to enable one-on-one connections, or “constructed situations,” creating memorable experiences with body, voice and movement rather than traditional art materials. They will not be documented through recordings, photos or videos, but remain ephemeral. The exhibit raises the question, “Can something that is not an inanimate object be considered valuable?” In This You, the art is held in that moment between viewer and interpreter — not in a frame in a gallery. And the value of that interaction lies solely with the viewer, upending traditional notions of the art object and the art experience.
Sept. 1 through Oct. 14 from 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m. daily at the Hirshhorn Museum & Sculpture Garden, Seventh Street and Independence Avenue SW. Admission is FREE!
