When We FIght, We Win! / ¡Cuando Luchamos, Ganamos! Art Exhibition at The Clemente

19 Jun When We FIght, We Win! / ¡Cuando Luchamos, Ganamos! Art Exhibition at The Clemente

“Art is not a mirror held up to reality, but a hammer with which to shape it.” – Bertolt Brecht

The When We Fight, We Win! / ¡Cuando Luchamos, Ganamos! exhibition features over 40 artists, cultural organizers and collectives whose work bolsters people’s movements and builds solidarity across place, culture and struggle. Moving from the page to the gallery walls, the exhibition provides space to share and interact with movement art in tactile and visceral ways, breaking the barriers of two dimensional form, to invite performance, moving image, installation, artwork used in direct actions, and collective art making.

This exhibition is made possible with support from the Caroline and Sigmund Schott Fund and The Clemente’s Open Call Program which is supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and the New York Council on the Arts.
