On the occasion of the group exhibition »Politics of Love« at the Kunsthaus Hamburg, we are excited to spotlight Amna Elhassan's work in this viewing room. »Politics of Love« counters the sharply defined contours of delimitations and power conflicts with many-voiced expressions of togetherness and inclusion. It is on view until 2 February 2025. Learn more at https://kunsthaushamburg.de/en/politics-of-love/.
