It’s your last chance to catch the timely and moving Breath(e) exhibit at the Hammer before it’s gone on Jan. 5. The show, which features artists responding to the urgency of climate justice and is part of the PST ART events, was conceived during the COVID-19 pandemic and includes work from over 20 artists. Garnett Puett’s sculpture includes live bees, which you can watch on the bee cam, so be cautious when viewing that one! The also fantastic Christina Ramberg exhibit closes the same day, so check out both while you’re there.
