On seven different Sundays in March and April you can discover Monica Bonvicini's art through the eyes of some else! "Monica Bonivicini according to..." is the title for a series of guided tours given by invited artists, authors, choreographers, and designers, who based on their personal background and field of work give their own take on Bonvicini’s art.
In connection with the guided tours the café will offer brunch and an invited DJ from Friendly Noise.
