SUMMARY:(UN)censored
DESCRIPTION:ARTISTS FIGHT BACK AFTER CANCELLATION OF ART EXHIBIT AT UN HEADQUARTERS\nCommunity rallies around women’s rights exhibition; now open in Brooklyn as a symbol of resistance\nExhibition title: “(UN)censored”\n630 Flushing Ave\, Brooklyn\, NY \nOpening hours – RSVP required: artefleur@gmail.com\nMarch 12\, 1-3:30pm\nMarch 13\, 1-3:30pm\nMarch 19\, 1-4pm\nMarch 20\, 1-4pm\nMarch 22\, 11am-4pm (before the public reception) \nCLOSING RECEPTION: March 22\, 4-8pm \nNew York\, NY – March 2\, 2025 – Just weeks before its scheduled debut at United Nations Headquarters\, “Rules\, Responsibilities\, Restraints: Women’s Pursuit of Equity\,” an exhibition about women’s labor and rights—was unexpectedly stripped of its previously secured endorsement from the European Union Delegation. This was not a financial sponsorship\, but an official endorsement—a necessary requirement for the exhibition to be shown at UNHQ. Without this backing\, the exhibition\, which was meant to be displayed in the highly visible UNHQ Visitors’ Lobby\, was shut down. “This decision takes away a chance to bring global attention to human rights\, artistic expression\, and freedom of speech\,” says Sawyer Rose\, an artist with works in this exhibit. \nWith their UNHQ exhibition silenced\, Rose and Fleur Spolidor\, a French artist with paintings in the exhibition\, raced to find a new venue in New York City—at the very moment these conversations should have been front and center. Refusing to let their work be censored\, the community rallied behind Spolidor and Rose to make sure the exhibition found a platform where it could be seen and heard. In response to the situation\, they have rebranded the exhibition as “(UN)censored\,” a powerful statement against the suppression of free speech and challenging artistic work. \nThe exhibition\, featuring work by American sculptor Rose (The Carrying Stones Project) and French painter Spolidor (The Swimsuits Series)\, was set to open alongside the 69th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69) and the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration on women’s rights—a moment meant to celebrate progress toward gender equity. Yet\, in a striking contradiction\, the EU Delegation pulled its endorsement just two weeks before opening\, citing the ‘challenging global context.’ \n“It’s getting harder to have honest conversations about equity and human rights\,” Rose says. “If even an exhibition about women’s labor and rights is considered too risky\, that tells you everything. These are exactly the kinds of discussions we should be putting front and center\, not shutting down.” \n“This is beyond frustrating\,” Spolidor says. “Nothing about our exhibition has changed since it was first approved. We spent years planning this\, got our endorsement\, followed every rule—then\, at the last minute\, it’s pulled. This isn’t just about our work being canceled; it’s about who gets to have a voice in these spaces. If art can’t challenge people\, what is it for?” \n——————————\nThe Bigger Picture: Art\, Politics\, and Free Expression\nThe artists are also calling on journalists\, arts organizations\, and advocacy groups to help amplify this story and raise awareness about the growing restrictions on artistic expression in today’s political climate. With the NEA directing more 2025 grant funding toward projects celebrating the nation’s 250th anniversary\, and recent shifts in the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts’ board under the current administration\, the arts are increasingly being shaped by political influence. \nThese developments highlight a troubling trend: the narrowing of creative spaces where freedom of speech and artistic expression can thrive. \n“The cancellation of this exhibition is part of a much larger fight for artistic freedom\,” Spolidor says. “When art that challenges the status quo is silenced\, it’s not just the artists who lose—it’s all of us.” \n—————————— \nHow You Can Help \nPress & Media: Journalists interested in covering this story can contact us for interviews\, images\, and additional details. \nAdvocacy & Outreach: If you work with a museum\, nonprofit\, or advocacy group that supports artistic freedom\, we’d love to connect. \nFor all inquiries\, contact:\nsawyer@sawyerrose.com  |  415-806-2458\nMore information: artforwomensequity.com\n\n——————————\n\nAbout the Team \nFleur Spolidor is a French painter whose work explores themes of women’s rights\, its history\, and cultural representations. The Swimsuits Series is a visual representation of the surreal challenges that women face in society. \nSawyer Rose is an American sculptor and activist recognized for The Carrying Stones Project\, a body of work that blends sculpture with data visualization to highlight the disproportionate labor burdens placed on women. \nKaren M. Gutfreund is the Curatorial Producer of “(UN)censored.” An artist and curator with a focus on “Art as Activism.” Gutfreund has created more than forty-five national exhibitions with self-identified women artists\, on feminist and social justice themes.

SUMMARY:Tacit Knowledge:  Paper as Practice in the Dieu Donné West Bay View Foundation Fellowship Program
DESCRIPTION:Tacit Knowledge:\nPaper as Practice in the Dieu Donné West Bay View Foundation Fellowship Program\nJanuary 23 – March 7\, 2025 \nEFA Studios\n323 West 39th St.\, New York\, NY\, 3rd Floor\nHours: Tue–Fri\, 12–5 pm \nAnna Hendrick Karpatkin Benjamin\nKatharine L. DeLamater\nCandy Alexandra González\nJaz Graf\nLauren Krukowski\nSR Lejeune\nAnela Ming-Yue Oh \nCurated by Eliana Blechman \nContemporary papermaking draws on generations of knowledge about fibers\, waters\, and motions of the body. There is ritual in the processes of preparing pulp\, pulling sheets\, and pressing and drying paper between or upon boards. The practice of papermaking is learned as much through an inherent\, tacit understanding within the body as it is through overt instruction. Working with pulp is a tactile exercise – one through which artists imbue meaning and history into their materials and art. \nTacit Knowledge celebrates seven years of Dieu Donné’s West Bay View Foundation Fellowship\, an immersive studio mentorship for emerging papermakers to expand and enrich their artistic practices at Dieu Donné’s papermaking studios in Brooklyn\, NY. Artists and papermakers Anna Hendrick Karpatkin Benjamin\, Katharine L. DeLamater\, Candy Alexandra González\, Jaz Graf\, Lauren Krukowski\, SR Lejeune\, and Anela Ming-Yue Oh each spent three to six months in the Dieu Donné papermaking studios\, fully immersing themselves in the art of papermaking\, supporting artists and projects coming through the studio\, and learning to hone their techniques and develop their own practices. Their fellowships culminated in dedicated professional studio days for each artist to each create new bodies of artwork in handmade paper. Their resulting artworks pull from personal\, social\, and historical experience\, and explore ritual\, identity\, heritage\, and environment\, mining both inherited and privatized forms of knowledge. \nFor all press inquiries\, please contact Emma Hill at ehill@dieudonne.org. \nFor more info please visit:  https://www.studios-efanyc.org/exhibitions \n

SUMMARY:Mitochondrial Ontologies: Deep Time and the Digital at Mónica Reyes Gallery
DESCRIPTION:A video installation by Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda in collaboration with with Freya Zinovieff\, prOphecy Sun and Steve DiPaola with the participation of Salome Nieto\, Matilda Aslizadeh\, Maira Cristina Castro\, Lois Klassen\, Alessandra Santos\, Sarah Shamash\, Reese Muntean and Jay Tseng.\n\nThe video installation will be on view from dusk till dawn between November 24 -30.\, in a drive-by-drive-in style screening at Mónica Reyes Gallery\, Vancovuer B.C\,\n\nOpening: Sunday\,  November 24\, 6 pm to 8 pm.\nArtist Talk:  Saturday\, November 30\,12 pm to 1 pm.\nhttps://www.monicareyesgallery.com/gabriela-aceves.html\n\n\nMitochondrial Ontologies: Deep Time and the Digital (a 15-minute video installation with sound) is part of an ongoing collaborative project directed by Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda. The project uses the concept of mitochondria as a metaphor to explore the female body as a generative host of human and non-human life. Known as the powerhouse of the cell\, the mitochondria control energy production at the cellular level. In most multicellular organisms\, the mother inherits the mitochondrial DNA\, thus pointing to the possibility of tracing maternal lineages over time through the female body. \nMitochondrial Ontologies: Deep Time and the Digital uses the generative conflations of mitochondria as powerhouse and maternal lineage to explore possible futures in which algorithms may demarcate biological and digital boundaries.  Drawing from Lynn Margulis’ (1986) endosymbiotic theory of evolution\, which emphasizes cooperation rather than competition\, the project also explores symbiosis as a co-creation methodology through participatory dance workshops\, bacteria growth experiments and A.I. image generation. \nThe video combines images and sounds created by nine artists invited to participate in a series of Butoh dance workshops and to grow bacteria individually from their bodies and domestic spaces with a DIY kit. It constructs a visual narrative that reflects the possibility of tracing past lineages of humans and non-humans through the female body. It references how knowledge and information are passed down from generation to generation across bodies\, machines\, and geographies. \nOver six months\, the participating artists practiced butoh together to develop a common choreography of movements to reflect on their past and future human and non- human ancestries. They also shared their experiences of growing bacteria through audio\, photography\, poetry and video. Butoh’s focus on improvisation and emphasis on inviting embodied communal and individual reflections on the nature of being through visual prompts\, facilitated connections among participants. The dance workshops turned into rich environments\, hosts of energies\, affects\, ideas\, and resources that inspired symbiotic interactions between the participants and generated other projects. These parallel projects and collaborations can be viewed here. \nThe video is directed and developed by Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda in collaboration with sound artists and researchers Freya Zinovieff and prOphecy sun. It incorporates AI images created by artist and researcher Steve Di Paola. Choreographer and dancer Salome Nieto led the butoh workshops with participating artists Matilda Aslizadeh\, Maira Cristina Castro\, Lois Klassen\, Alessandra Santos\, Sarah Shamash\, prOphecy Sun\, Freya Zinovieff and Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda. Reese Muntean and Jay Tseng provided support with photography and video editing. \nMitochondrial Ontologies: Deep Time and the Digital builds from previous collaborations exploring the relations between self and technology and the use of computational tools in live performance and video art by Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda\, Freya Zinovieff\, prOphecy Sun and Steve DiPaola. \n\n\n\nThanks to the support of the Canada Council for the Arts. \nImage: “Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda\, Mitochondrial Ontologies: Deep Time and the Digital. 2024. 15-minute one-channel video with sound.

SUMMARY:From the summit the clouds
DESCRIPTION:This is a multisensorial installation by Mexican artist and curator Elizabeth Ross. \nThe artist primarily used Xuan paper and inks to create an emotional\, artistic\, and gestural diary\, a response to the intense emotions evoked by the ongoing events in West Asia. Sound\, video\, and aroma create a singular experience. \nThe curator Iris lam Chen ends her presentation text with this paragraph: All the works highlight the complementary contrast between the angry and sanguine nature of the Latin American vocal denunciation that demands a reaction\, and the melancholic and phlegmatic nature of the Chinese culture that prays for the honor of the fallen from silence and ritual. This intercultural mix is ​​inexorable in Elizabeth’s work and a constant in the present exhibition.

SUMMARY:Perfectly Imperfect. International Group Show  | Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The Imperfecta Art & Design Gallery is pleased to present Perfectly Imperfect\, a group art show that features 27 artists based in the US\, UK\, Italy\, Spain\, Chile and Mexico. \nOn view from November 9th to the 31st\, the show features new original artworks by women artists Ágata Pérez\, Alexis Marcie Bomarito\, Amelia Johannsen\, Arianna Gazca\, Bea Garth\, Bernadette Fox\, Daria Loi\, Deborah Donelson\, Francesca Dalla Benetta\, Francesca Loi\, Holly de Saillan\, Jacqueline Myers-Cho\, Kate Reed\, Laura Pedrini\, Linda Tarr\, Mimma Scarpini\, Natasha Martinovic\, Rosa Henriquez\, Ruth Meijer\, Sage Kemmerlin\, Sena Clara Creston\, Sandra Alderman\, Sue Schaefer\, Strauss-McQueen\, Wynter Jones\, Zarod Rominski and Zexuan Jia. \nArtists were challenged to explore notions of imperfection and the beauty of imperfect uniqueness by creating monochromatic artworks in any medium. The 27 artworks on show include oil and acrylic paintings\, ceramic art\, art dolls\, bronze sculptures\, multimedia art\, mixed media art\, fiber art\, ink and pencil drawings and photography. \nParticipating artists Strauss-McQueen (a collaboration between Keith McQueen and Maxfield Strauss) state that “imperfection is the rest state of humanity” and “perfection is a mirage — and yet\, as humans we aspire with amusing naivety to this unattainable plane.” Their piece\, entitled Per[fiction]\, poetically demonstrates this paradox. \nCeramist Linda Tarr\, who created a standing tonal percussion instrument to celebrate imperfection\, reflects: “To assume imperfection enables risk. To notice and then be curious about the gifts of materials acting out their own character\, and accept outcomes that are unintended develops a kind of humble dignity.” \nArt doll maker Zexuan Jia created a cat that is “attempting to sew herself back together” to reflect on a painful experience using an “unserious tone\, because it is perfectly fine to be flawed and damaged as long as you still try to pull everything together even if you’re imperfect at fixing it all.” \nMultimedia artist Arianna Gazca leveraged a dark blue-gray color scheme to express the “feeling of emptiness\, of uncertainty\, and of ominous ambiguity” associated with notions of imperfection. Her moving images “blend and layer on top of one another to emphasize running thoughts and levels of anxiety” and the audio accompaniment “provides a looped effect to exemplify a moment of replaying a previous event in one’s head.” \nIn her acrylic on canvas piece\, Kate Reed explored “how even a person who is “perfect” can often only see their own perceived imperfections” and with her piece titled “Origins”\, Natasha Martinovic depicts “the moment of acceptance of oneself and one’s imperfections as a sign of individuality and self-knowledge.” \nThe above statements are but a small sample of the powerful stories and interpretations of what imperfection may mean and represent. As participating artist Amelia Johannsen well puts it: “In a world driven by ideals of perfection\, I find beauty in the flaws and irregularities that nature presents. Imperfections are not failures; they are marks of life\, evidence of growth\, resilience\, and adaptation.” \nThe show debuts on November 9 with an Opening Reception from 5 to 7pm and runs through November 31. \nAbout Imperfecta Art & Design Gallery\nimperfecta is an art & design gallery focused on elevating the work and voices of women artists and minority creatives.\nlocation: 117 6th street\, Oregon City OR 97045 USA\nweb: http://www.imperfecta.xyz

SUMMARY:DOMESTIC. video art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:”State policies and law regulations regarding women’s rights in the territories of the former Eastern Bloc maintained a conservative view of the role of women in society\, despite equal rights and formal opportunities. This generated social norms and prejudices still maintained today and contributed to the one-way association of women with the domestic space. ln the idea of the imprint of an aesthetic and some issues specific to these territories\, but also some nuanced differences\, Domestic brings together several narratives from Romania\, Serbia and Croatia at the intersection of video art and short film. Discourses invite us to dive deep into the idea of domestic in contemporary societies\, both as a physical and as a mental space\, observing the social pressure\, the dynamics of gender roles and the relationship between private and public life.\nThis vision focused exclusively on artistic practices in the sphere of the dynamic image makes it possible to outline a durational analytical perspective in order to launch an updated debate on the concept of domesticity regarding gender roles and identities\, domestic work and motherhood\, reproductive rights and responsibility\, domestic violence\, care\, autonomy and dependence and intersectionality. The project raises awareness on aspects of women’s lives that are often invisible in the public space\, such as depression and anxiety\, with the aim of emphasizing the importance of social integration of psycho-emotional dimensions such as vulnerability\, shame\, sadness and empathy. The domestic space can be a source of trauma\, an environment of comfort and recovery\, a territory of identity deconstruction and reconstruction\, a place of honesty and intimacy\, of uncomfortable confrontations and of mirroring social norms. This project joins the efforts of understanding the current context of women’s rights and equal opportunities in Romania and in other Eastern European countries from the nuanced perspective of the relationship with the present\, the historical and the political past and the mentalities\, bringing up narratives that record the impact of domestic life on women.” (curatorial statement by Olivia Nitis)

SUMMARY:DIVERSE. Poetics of Nature.
DESCRIPTION:“Diverse. Poetics of Nature is an exhibition that reveals my enormous admiration and respect for nature\, for its intuitive and spontaneous frankness. In times when everything tends to be the result of a construction: images\, what we say\, perceptions… the only thing that remains real and true\, is nature.” \n Jeannette Betancourt

SUMMARY:Black\, Femme\, Queer\, Here
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition of images shines a light on the lives and legacies of Black\, femme\, & queer people from right here in Kentucky. From the fiery performances of Toni LaFlame to the downtown strolls of Sweet Evening Breeze\, these individuals have played a crucial role in making Lexington a safer space for the LGBTQ+ community. \nSome of these images were collected through Facebook posts and messages from members of Lexington’s queer community while most are from the collections of the Faulkner Morgan Archive. FMA shares Kentucky’s lesbian\, gay\, bisexual\, trans\, and queer history. Founded in 2014\, they are dedicated to telling Kentucky’s LGBTQ story. The Faulkner Morgan Archive currently houses 15\,000 items and more than 250 hours of recorded interviews. Their collections span 200 years of history\, representing individuals\, events\, and institutions across Kentucky’s diverse LGBTQ spectrum\, creating a rich resource for activists\, scholars\, artists\, and museums. You can help them continue to preserve stories like this by visiting faulknermorgan.org. \nThis project is continuing to expand\, so if you have any images\, stories\, or history that you would like to share\, please reach out! Send any information you have on Black\, femme\, & queer Kentuckians to josh@itsjoshporter.com.

SUMMARY:Llegaremos todas al mar / We will all reach the sea
DESCRIPTION:Paintings by Pamela Zubillaga\n\n\nPamela Zubillaga’s artwork reveals in a very natural way the complex and often invisible intergenerational relations between women in a clan. Her paintings capture intimate and silent moments\, which show both the weight and the beauty of these connections. From that intimacy\, she seeks to explore the generational loyalty that has united the women of her family. Zubillaga reconstructs a reality that makes color a vibrant and evocative language of identity\, a tool that reveals the links\, the hierarchies\, the secrets.\n\nFrom September 17th to October 13th\n\nvenue and organizer: AGUAFUERTE Galería\nMéxico City\n\naguafuertegaleria.com

SUMMARY:CONNECT
DESCRIPTION:Initially inspired by the online connections formed during the pandemic lockdown\, Stephanie Camille’s art delves into the intersections of digital and physical existence. Rooted in the introspections from her journal during the initial lonely months\, she explores those realities through metaphorical ‘windows’ using recognizable digital interfaces. Blending traditional mediums like oil and gouache\, Connect is a journey of self-discovery\, unraveling the complexities of isolation\, loneliness\, and routine. On one end\, screens trap us\, but on the other end\, we can fall in love with our only connection to the people we yearn to be physically near. \nPresented by Studio 180 Theatre and the Feminist Art Collective. Stephanie Camille is an artist currently residing in the GTA and is currently finishing up her MFA at OCAD University. Oil paint\, being Stephanie’s preferred medium\, has a ‘timeless\,’ adaptable-yet-ridged\, and romantic quality that Stephanie loves juxtaposing with her modern\, vibrant aesthetic. She has previously experimented with digital collage and interventions during the pandemic when everything was online-focused. Inspired by bright\, saturated colours\, Stephanie paints technicolour portraits that connect to her current topic of focus for her thesis: hyperfemininity and girly-girl aesthetics. Learn more about Stephanie’s work here. \nPresented in conjunction the Canadian Premiere of FOUR MINUTES TWELVE SECONDS by James Fritz and directed by Mark McGrinder.

SUMMARY:Fuego:  Women set their world on fire
DESCRIPTION:On view 4/1/24 – 5/5/24 with opening reception and artist talks Friday\, April 5\, 2024 from 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. \nmosaicARTs and Debra Wright Studio have joined forces to commemorate the feminist art movement. These women artists ignited a spark that inspired them to create\, build\, and establish a supportive art community for others. The collaboration aims to acknowledge the significant contributions of female artists while promoting gender equality and empowerment for women. \nIn the United States\, 51% of living visual artists are women\, yet only 13.7% of them are represented in galleries. On average\, they earn 81 cents for every dollar made by their male contemporaries. \nApropos to the exhibition title as well as the feminist art movement\, Fuego is the Spanish word for “fire.”  Women artists have to kick down doors otherwise held wide open for men and\, when we do\, there is often backlash.  Yet these misogynistic efforts aimed at undermining us catalyze our solidarity\, instead. \nCurator Debra Wright incurred such wrath when an enraged male artist doused her artwork with lighter fluid and set it ablaze in retribution.  These actions intended to derail her backfired\, generating an outpouring of support from women artists everywhere that compelled Wright to focus her future efforts furthering feminist art initiatives.  Fuego is a continuation of this commitment. \nAs we acknowledge feminist artists of today\, we also pay testament to the perseverance of those who came before us.  These actions ensure our place in history.  We cannot allow ourselves to be absent from the cultural record. \nLighting the torch for each other\, we find our way together and inspiration ignites in each of us. \nWomen set the world on fire. \nImage: Debra Wright\, Moneyshot\, undergarment and currency\, 6 x 6 x 4 inches

SUMMARY:The State We’re In
DESCRIPTION:Solo exhibition at Kathryn Markel Fine Arts: \nNancy Cohen’s unconventional drawings\, drawn with paper pulp and fritted glass\, find their origin in her move to Jersey City in the 1980s. Along the shore and waterways\, the evergreen vegetation thriving amid industrial waste sparked Cohen’s environmental awareness. Waterways\, as subject and imagery\, draw from personal experience and recur in her work as symbols of nature’s ability to endure adversity. In “The State We’re In\,” Cohen pursues the theme of survival\, environmentally and personally. Cohen describes her process as “thinking with her hands.” Concerns outside the studio and challenges within are explored through physically pushing the boundaries of paper and glass. The materials serve as collaborators and provocateurs\, where fused glass objects or a handmade paper are repurposed as source material and inspiration for later works. Cohen’s choices of materials and processes challenge notions of fragility and resilience. Like fritted glass undergoing transformation in a kiln\, Cohen’s work focuses on strength and beauty in the struggle for survival. \nImage: Nancy Cohen\, Breathing Under Water\, 2023 (detail)

SUMMARY:The Brodsky Center at Rutgers University: Three Decades\, 1986–2017
DESCRIPTION:Rutgers Distinguished Professor Emerita Judith K. Brodsky\, a visionary artist and advocate\, arts administrator and entrepreneur\, printmaker\, and scholar\, recognized that women and gender nonconforming artists\, as well as artists of color\, were excluded from the art world in the 1980s. Brodsky’s pioneering vision set out to rectify the situation by establishing in 1986 a print- and papermaking residency center for these artists\, now known as the Brodsky Center. From its inception\, the Center strategically placed itself at the vanguard of art making\, not only with print and papermaking techniques but also with the innovation of new ideas and narratives as a model for institutional and artworld diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. \nThe Brodsky Center\, with state-of-the-art facilities\, was the site of experiments with concepts that emerged in the 21st century as dominant concerns of artists in the contemporary art world: race and ethnic identity\, nonconforming gender issues\, climate and the environment\, the politics of language\, and immigration. The Center encouraged artists to explore how working in what were often for them the new processes of print and paper could expand their previous realms of thought. While at Rutgers University\, the Brodsky Center served as a catalyst for cultural transformation in New Jersey\, in the United States\, and worldwide. It continues to do so at its present location in Philadelphia\, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. \nThe artworks on view in this exhibition are illustrative of new imagery and artistic languages now incorporated into contemporary art making in the 21st century. The exhibition is thematically conceived\, exemplifying the Brodsky Center’s mission to insert new narratives into the American cultural mainstream. Five representative artworks\, as emblems that capture the essence of the Brodsky Center\, have been singled out for placement at the entrance to the exhibition. The works on view are then organized into nine other sections: Cultural Vitality and Social Justice\, Documenting Place: Real and Imagined\, Escaping the Unitary Linear\, Icons and Symbols\, Innovations\, Looking at the Portrait\, The Sages\, Tribulations and Endings\, and Visualizing Texts. \nOrganized by Ferris Olin\, Distinguished Professor Emerita\, Rutgers University
