This event has ended.

In the debut New York solo show of international sensation Larissa Sansour, it's a beautiful dream. Born in Jerusalem in 1973 to a Russian mother and a Palestinian father, educated in New York and London and living in Copenhagen, Sansour has grown weary of representations of the Palestinian people in the international media. In this exhibition, " A Space Exodus," she gives us a powerful alternative, as charmingly mischievous as it is delightful and magical. Visitors will encounter her video "A Space Exodus" —in which we see her landing on the moon—along with five large photographs of the event and a hundred toy-like Palestinaut sculptures. It doesn't look real. It looks like a movie.
