    Lee Mingwei: Guernica in Sand
    , a large-scale installation and performance to be staged in The Studio. Taking Pablo Picasso’s iconic 1937 masterpiece
    Guernica
    , painted in response to the violence of the Spanish Civil War, as its departure point, Lee Mingwei recreates this painting in sand. Towards the end of the display, a live performance invites visitors to walk on the sand painting. Four performers will then gently sweep the sand in spontaneous movements that simultaneously destroy and recreate the image anew.
