Later in the exhibition, we will be joined by Noor Abed, Kathrin Bohm, Ronan McCrea, Suzanne Mooney, Sarah Pierce, Anne Tallentire, Grace Weir, Natalia Beylis and many more friends

For one year, we have invited O Neill to curate a new version of his Coalescence, which has been challenging the exhibition format since the early 2000s. We are thrilled to host O Neill at Shimmer, where we will explore the potential of exhibitions by involving the artist and audience in an evolving process.

Coalescence: Happenstance With All Due Intent is a durational, accumulative and evolving exhibition-form featuring artists from all over the world to experiment with the exhibition format through collaboration, intervention, constellation and juxtaposition. Throughout the year, artists will respond to each other s works, creating new pieces inspired by or adapting existing ones. Such actions turn the exhibition space into a dynamic environment where artists works merge into a collective assemblage. This exhibition challenges the boundaries of individuality and authorship, promoting a sense of cooperative and coalescent gathering.

Thank you to Culture Ireland, Cultuurfonds, Gemeente Rotterdam, Mondriaan Fonds, Kerlin Gallery, Alice Weiner, and Christophe Clarijs for making this exhibition possible!
