An exhibition in collaboration between KADIST San Francisco and The Lab. Open Ears considers the social and political dimensions of sound, as it interweaves personal and collective histories and actions in relation to toppling of monuments and rematriation of cultural artifacts. Bringing together the works of Michael Rakowitz and Asha Sheshadri, Open Ears prompts close listening as a pathway of resilience. 

Open Ears is in conjunction with the KADIST San Francisco exhibition Makeshift Memorials, Small Revolutions.
