Join us for a screening of Rosalind Nashashibi’s 2017 film Vivian’s Garden

Vivian’s Garden tenderly depicts the relationship between Vivian Suter and her mother, artist Elisabeth Wild. The film visits them at their home in Panajachel, Guatemala, showing Suter at work creating her paintings among the jungle garden. Their home is a place of both danger and security, with stories of kidnappings and floods alongside the supportive mother-daughter bond.

Accompanying the screening, Nashashibi will be in conversation with Adam Szymczyk, curator and artistic director of of Documenta 14, an exhibition that showcased both artists. He has worked closely with Nashashibi and Suter on numerous occasions over the last 15 years.

This has been programmed to coincide with our Vivian Suter exhibition.
