6 pm Member Preview | 7 pm Public Reception

Openings are an opportunity to celebrate and enjoy the Kemper Art Museum’s latest special exhibitions: Precarious Worlds and Tomás Saraceno. In fall 2011 the Museum will also be marking the reinstallation of the Bernoudy Permanent Collection Gallery, with a completely new layout exploring works in the Museum’s permanent collection through three new thematic arrangements: Nature | Culture, Body | Self, and Abstract | Real, as well as the fall Teaching Gallery exhibition Performance and Performativity in Contemporary Art. Members are welcome at the preview reception from 6 to 7 pm, followed by a public opening from 7 to 9 pm.

Throughout the evening, a free shuttle will run between the fall openings at the Kemper Art Museum and Grand Center, where there will be events at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, and Bruno David Gallery. more details
