Working with local brokers and scrap dealers around Bagram Airfield, Hazara collected discarded items such as uniforms, electronics, kitchenware, and tents, and returns a portion of them to their place of origin.

The work-in-becoming began with a 2019 residency in San Francisco's Grace Cathedral and continues to gather experiences through community participation before its roots are ultimately reunited with the ground through burial. Hodges, an internationally renowned artist who lives and works between New York City and Milan, has explored themes of fragility, temporality, love, and death since the late 1980s.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/unearthed-a-work-in-progress-66540/", "official_url": "", "image": "https://noky.io/images/d77f8a80055ebb6a38ce4859f6a28ba33a54f46a7e56a5b59f2c21e88cbb2e53-2000.webp"}, {"title": "Do Ho Suh", "start": "2026-08-27T00:00:00-04:00", "end": "2027-02-09T00:00:00-05:00", "place": "Lehmann Maupin", "address": "West 24th Street 501, 10011 New York", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "tickets_url": "", "category": "exhibitions-museums", "tags": ["art/installation"], "description": "This is an exhibition of work by the artist Do Ho Suh, presented at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea in Seoul.

In it, sculptures modeled after depleted uranium shells are painted in the colors of the flags of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Namibia, Niger, and the United States, using the shapes and colors of modernist abstraction to examine the entanglement of resource extraction with systems of power. Samba deconstructs the symbols of national identity that uphold the global military-industrial complex, addressing the colonial geography of uranium extraction and its ongoing impact on African people, places, and sovereignty.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/coumba-samba-stars-and-stripes-67470/", "official_url": "", "image": "https://noky.io/images/34befa5f08358a417d03e61d50cf1b8c5e6941fe254828b5f4445d189e7530f0-2000.webp"}]}
