New year – Index re-opens with care from Thu 14 January 2021

Index re-opens to the public for the final two weeks to visit the exhibition Tracking Distribution, on view until 31 January. We continue to prioritize our visitors and our team, and monitor visitor numbers to ensure social distancing is possible, taking extra care and with increased cleaning in place.

If you would like to visit the exhibition alone, outside of our regular hours, please contact us and we will arrange this.

Tracking Distribution is an exhibition that presents a proposal to think together around the invisible structures organizing the world. Distribution is a key word within logistics systems and the management of economies. Read Håkan Nilsson’s review of Tracking Distribution in Svenska Dagbladet here.

Upcoming exhibition - EDITORIAL THINKING, Fri 19 February 2021

Editorial Thinking presents and explores editorial processes in artistic practices. The exhibition brings together works, publications and approaches to thinking and working with contemporary art through a process-based working method which could be considered as an editorial mode or lens. Editorial thinking is understood as a way to observe the world with multiple temporalities and focus, navigating through formats and collaborating with many agents.

With Rosa Barba, OEI, Pontus Pettersson, Alex Reynolds, and The Book Lovers
