Exhibition Info:

Onassis ONX is pleased to announce Group Hug, a landmark exhibition of large-scale, site-specific video game installations. Presented with Water Street Projects in collaboration with curators Julia Kaganskiy, Serpentine Arts Technologies, and Rhizome, the exhibition invites visitors to play together and lose themselves in the sensorial worlds of each game through sight, sound, and touch.

Across each game, players must learn to communicate and cooperate in order to discover and survive unfamiliar worlds. Group Hug is inspired by the idea of radical collaboration, with each work elevating group play over traditional individualistic game logic. The exhibition also activates our model for collaborative curation, uniting unique creative perspectives from artists in one space. Group Hug will also feature a public programming series during the run of the exhibition that will be announced in early September.
