  • No ambiguity. Thank you @ybca and @taniabruguera.
  • Click the @cnni link in our profile to watch as two million knots become a rug! These methods are similar to those used by ALRUG in Lahore, Pakistan to create the rugs for our exhibition "Sanctuary," opening October 7. #ArtAboutPlace #Sanctuary
  • @mcachicago is in the midst of a @kickstarter campaign to raise money for "Enemy Kitchen" -- a food truck and public art project by artist #MichaelRakowitz that dishes up Iraqi food (served by U.S. veterans) and explores the relationship between hospitality and hostility. Funds raised will support getting the "Enemy Kitchen" truck back up and running for Rakowitz's upcoming MCA exhibition, "Michael Rakowitz: Backstroke of the West." FOR-SITE is a strong believer in the ability of cross-cultural dialogue to bridge divides, and we'd love to see "Enemy Kitchen" doing just that. If you can, please consider supporting this great project! . . . . . . . . #PublicArt #ArtAsActivism #SocialJustice #SocialPractice
  • Weekend idea -- visit @seewhatyouthink (San Jose Museum of Art) to see "Diana Al-Hadid: Liquid City." Pictured here is a close-up of her monumental sculpture "Nolli's Orders," which references Giambattista Nolli's landmark 1748 map of Rome, which was the first map of its kind to show public spaces in the city -- public spaces rendered as transparent, and private as solid. @dianaalhadid's work often toys with such visual perceptions -- light and shadow, seen and unseen. 📷: @seewhatyouthink ______ @dianaalhadid is one of 36 artists in FOR-SITE's upcoming exhibition "Sanctuary," opening October 7. #ArtAboutPlace #Sanctuary
