In an unexpected unification of art, essential public service, and large-scale municipal systems, Ukeles worked with DSNY to map the pick-up route of all 8, sanitation workers.
Ukeles arrived at the DSNY through a bold feminist declaration made in , when as a new mother and housekeeper she realized that child-rearing had cast her aside from a patriarchal art world.

Courtesy of the Hasselblad Foundation. For each new artistic endeavor, he masters a new set of skills — like horticulture, ancient health remedies, or nutrition — then designs an artistic project to teach those skills in his community and inspire the public to take local action.
The results provide a healthy, natural, and accessible food supply. My actions will be small, but their collective impact will be great. I promise to consume fresh and local produce.

In Days , Smith eclipses her face in a family photograph, taken in a prison visiting room, alluding to the shadow of incarceration on her family. The images are made so that I can see me. I am haunted by trauma. We are woven in this kaleidoscopic memoir by our desires to consume pain, to blur fact and fiction, to escape. These are often painted by inmates, and form the backdrop for the Polaroid photos taken of inmates with their visitors.
These portraits must be purchased for the equivalent of more than 20 hours of inmate labor, on average. Two photoworks, Days and Nights , tell the story of this microeconomy and the unspoken negotiation embedded in these images, by emphasizing how the intimate moments they capture are choreographed by the strictures of the visitation and the agents that enact them, including the muralist and the roomful of spectators: guard, photographer, inmates not receiving a visit, inmates receiving a visit, and their visitors.
She is widely recognized for her photo-text installations, collages, and films. Combined as a whole, Simpson confronts the lack of accessible health care for many Americans, especially women of color.
Simpson compels viewers to realize that any judgment about this woman will be based on incomplete information, on assumptions rather than on a true understanding of this individual. The four phrases printed on the image reveal even more complex ideas. Each claims that something—a lie, discrimination, isolation, or a promise—is not something else—a shelter, protection, remedy, or prophylactic.

Alice Sheppard Medium: dance short film, shot for video.
Includes audio description. We see disability as more than the deficit of diagnosis. In our work, intersectional disability is an aesthetic, a culture and essential element of our artistry.
Through rigorous investment in the histories, cultures, and artistic work of people with disabilities and people of color, Kinetic Light creates transformative art that advances the intersectional disability arts movement. Director Katherine Helen Fisher continues her experimentation with flight and slow motion filmography as Laurel and Alice leap, dramatically, into the blue sky.
It does not reiterate or confirm familiar stereotypes of disability. I am driven to create art that connects to the beautiful complicated histories and cultures of disability, race, gender, and sexuality. I do not work in a vacuum; I am part of a complicated, contentious, exciting community. I want my work to continue our conversations, honour our pasts, and open a vista to our futures.
We are accustomed to thinking of accessibility as being about an accommodation that bridges the gap between the disabled and the nondisabled worlds. But activists… and disability justice communities…emphasize access as a process and a way of creating connection between disabled people, a way of knowing and being in the world.

Note: Alice Sheppard started dancing after a dare. Disabled dancer Homer Avila challenged her to take a dance class, which so inspired her love of movement that she resigned her academic professorship to become a professional dancer.

There artists, writers, and activists affirmed their values to resist and reimagine the current political climate. Other attendees included Baseera Khan and Martha Rosler, with contributions by the Guerrilla Girls — all artists included in the Catalyst installation.
That said, for much of the last three decades, my work has been addressing some of the big questions confronting people. In the early s, Rosler felt compelled to return to this style in response to the ongoing American wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. This is us telling ourselves that life is beautiful here at home and this is what we do abroad. Trained in languages and linguistics, Ms. Rosen realized in the s that what most interested her about language were the ways it could be expressed visually.
Drawing on this linguistic background, she began an exploration of the intersection of meaning and structure in language through pictorial means: color, materials, scale, composition, typography, and graphic design.
Her investigation into alternative functions of language continues today. AIDS was created at a time when treatments for the once fatal disease began to offer growing measures of hope and succor for its survivors. The words Rosen deploys in English, Spanish, and French convey such a budding sense of benevolent resilience.
Her large and diverse portfolio as well as her political and social activism are a reflection of her life experiences within her family and community, and the segregation, racism and sexism of the same period. She organized demonstrations against the Whitney Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art demanding that more black artists be represented in their shows. When it became obvious that these institutions were beginning to open only to male black artists, she said she became a feminist and led a protest at the Whitney that insisted female black artists must also be recognized.
