Sold out!

As part of the exhibition After Laughter Comes Tears, the work ASMR Spa by Taus Makhacheva will be activated by a performance allowing visitors to participate in an ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, a physical reaction of euphoria caused by auditory stimuli which inspired a very popular genre of videos on YouTube).

Visitors will be able to benefit from a 30-minute facial treatment in the artist's installation, while hearing about works of art by Frida Kahlo, Joseph Beuys and Rachel Whiteread that have been damaged, lost or destroyed.

Performer: Jules Davis-Dufayard
