Attachment--Krannert Art Museum, August 27 – December 12, 2015: Shadow Bodies

This guide provides additional resources and information on the artists and culture groups included in the exhibition Attachment. The exhibition is on view at the Krannert Art Museum (KAM) through December 18, 2015 in the East Galleries.

Shadow Bodies

Tangible surrogates or proxies for bodies remote in time and space, some objects derive their power of attachment, paradoxically, from the work they solicit from us – to fill in, complete, or otherwise engage with absence, partiality, and fictions of the whole.
