Water connects the artistic practices of different generations and origins: it is an ever-evolving territory that belongs to everyone and no one.

With a new, previously unseen production, the exhibition at MAXXI marks a new chapter in Oscar Tuazon’s Water School project. This artistic and educational initiative explores the dynamics and politics related to access to land, water, and infrastructure. It is an all-encompassing practice of creating spaces for encounters and collaboration.

The exhibition features works by internationally renowned artists, including Saif Azzuz, Matthew Barney, Christo, Abraham Cruzvillegas, Leslie Hewitt, Nancy Holt, Anna Sew Hoy, Pavlo Makov, and Marjetica Potrč.
