The exhibition "Trigger" inaugurates the museum's new core program in performance and the performing arts.

At the opening event, Estonian performance artist Maria Metsalu staged an act with a "wearable sculpture" by Bárbara Sánchez-Kane (red sculpture-costume on the cover). Mexican artist and designer Bárbara Sánchez-Kane crafts wearable art objects designed to empower and expand the wearer.

Doherty choreographed the dance performance "Hope Hunt and the Ascension into Lazarus" for a solo female performer, deconstructing the stereotype of the white European working-class male. In the dance, common tokens of masculinity, such as testosterone, social class and belonging, football fandom, religion and aggression are alternated with tenderness, nostalgia and empathy.
