About this Event
The Rupture is an international collaborative project bringing together Talbot Rice Gallery of the University of Edinburgh, Inside-Out Art Museum in Beijing, and the Museum of Contemporary Art and Design in Manila. Conceived by Tessa Giblin and Carol Yinghua Lu, with Joselina Cruz completing the curatorial partnership, the project responds in real-time to a world undergoing profound political, social and economic change, echoing Mark Carney's declaration "we are in the midst of a rupture,” in his 2026 Davos address. Curated in three episodes, The Rupture will launch at Talbot Rice Gallery in October of 2026, nine months after Davos.
This is your opportunity to find out personal insights into the curating process and hear stories behind this exhibition.
Additional resources to make your experience more comfortable:
- Free sensory kits available at reception. Each kit includes a stress ball, a pair of ear defenders, a traffic light fan, a soft toy with marble inside, a fidget toy, a magnifying glass torch, an eye mask, a dot-to-dot activity book and an emotion fan.
- A lift is available.
- Our staff and volunteers will be available for support if required.
