A Tender Manifesto


A  program of listening and conversation
Bienvenu Steinberg & J, New York
Wednesday April 10, 2024
With Julianne Swartz


In dialogue with curator Mathilde Walker-Billaud, artist Julianne Swartz walked us through Tenderness, her exhibition at Bienvenu Steinberg J (from March 14 to April 16, 2024) sharing insights about her approach to sound, materiality, and care.

The program included ambient listening, readings and a group-led conversation
