Gallery 12071’s new group show “Sweaty Armpits: We All Live in Bodies” features the work of numerous art studio alum. Curated by professor emerita Lucy Puls and alum Helia Pouyanfar (M.F.A. ‘ ), “Sweaty Armpits” explores anxiety through artists’ work that—for various material or conceptual reasons—elicits awareness of bodily energy, alertness, and sensory vibrations. The exhibitions premise reminds us that experience begins with the body, not just the mind.
