This intriguing show includes numerous artists across various media responding to re-readings and re-writings of Stéphane Mallarmé’s iconic poem “Un Coup de Dés Jamais N’Abolira le Hasard.” Mallarmé’s 1879 piece became a touchstone for the avant-garde, revolutionizing the visual art and literary communities of the era, including the work of Man Ray and Picasso. This exhibition continues that journey, chronicling the ongoing effect of Mallarmé’s experiments on culture by exhibiting works by international artists from a diverse range of backgrounds.
