Description
New Museum’s fifth triennial features the work of 40 artists and collectives throughout the museum's spaces. The show draws its title from a Brazilian proverb, Água mole em pedra dura, tanto bate até que fura (“Soft water on hard stone hits until it bores a hole”), and showcases the linked notions of resilience and perseverance, and the impact of small actions over time.
