RAW hosts French artists Youri Cayron and Romain Rivalan

News
On November 16th of 2019, RAW held the opening of the duo exhibition by the French artists, Youri Cayron and Romain Rivalan. The exhibition, titled “Let the Lonely Shells Dream,” is a multimedia experience about aggressive urbanization.
 
For the Let the Lonely Shells Dream exhibition, the gallery transformed its original installation by presenting diverse forms of art; such as film, video, monoliths, and photography. This transformation of the gallery was meant to fulfil the artistic goals as well as to break the standards of most classical 'white cube' galleries.
