This May, WhiteBox and Le Petit Versailles team up to present GreenBox@ Le Petit Versailles: A Vision for the Future in Present Tense. The outdoor exhibition will contemplate effects of the Anthropocene, urban ecology, and speculative futures through sculpture, performance, film, and conversation.
Featured artists include:
Daniel Rothbart, whose immersive sculptures conjure fluid, futuristic life forms—reimagining our bond with the natural world.
Pato Herbert, presenting In if Not always of, a poetic reflection on queer embodiment, migration, and transitory belonging.
sTo Len, screening I Have Seen, a haunting meditation on war trauma and a personal journey of return to Vietnam.
Plus: Yohanna Roa’s Indigenous foraging workshop, Noah Fischer on housing justice, Borinquen Gallo’s recycled material performance, and many more!
Free & open to all. Join us for an immersive weekend of radical ecology, memory, and creative resistance.
