Upcoming Events and Calls

A graphic promoting grunt gallery’s blind-led tour series lead by Gagan Kaur. At bottom, an image of an adult with brown skin and short, dark shoulder-length hair smiles while holding a pink silicone dildo before their nose and a bronze cast of a pursed anus before their mouth, playfully using the sculptures to transform their face. They stand in a bright, white-walled gallery lit by daylight from nearby windows. Bold white text on a black background at top outlines details of the blind-led tour series provided in the body paragraph text below this image.
Gagan displays tactile objects from Arjun Lal’s exhibition Shrines and Rituals.

Curious how exhibitions actually get installed?

For this special drag edition of our BTS Tour, join Case Later in exploring the tools, techniques, and problem-solving particularities for Arjun Lal’s Shrines and Rituals at grunt gallery. These informal, question-driven tours open up the often invisible labour of installation, access considerations, and exhibition-making.

Come ask questions, learn practical skills, and see how exhibitions come together.
