Amsterdam-based contemporary project bureau Semester9 invites London-based gallery Shipton to present Vigil: Death and the Afterlife, a group show and exhibition featuring 26 contemporary artists, set to open this Friday, November 22. Through installations, sculptures, paintings, and multimedia works, the exhibition explores the transitions between life, death, and what lies beyond.
Curated by Isabella Greenwood and co-curator Doron Beuns, Vigil unfolds across three chapters—corporeal decay, liminal realms, and post-human futures—inviting audiences to reflect on mortality as both a vital and creative force.
The free opening will take place on November 22, between 17:00-21:00 at KNSM-Laan 143, Amsterdam. The exhibition will be open to the public with free entrance from November 23 to December 7, 2024. Tickets and opening RSVP can be found at this link.
