The MAK Center for Art and Architecture invites you to the opening reception of Nancy Holt: Light and Shadow Poetics.

What does it mean to notice how we see? Nancy Holt: Light and Shadow Poetics at the MAK Center at the Schindler House offers an encounter where art and architecture shape perception together. Over five decades, Nancy Holt (1938–2014) explored how we perceive the world, and how language, light, sound, and the built environment shape our sense of place. This exhibition brings Holt’s work into a responsive dialogue with the Schindler House, inviting visitors to experience art and architecture as partners in seeing.

RSVP for the opening reception here.
