Through his multidisciplinary practice—including paintings, drawings, textiles, and a new multimedia sculpture being created for this exhibition—Umar Rashid draws on both history and fantasy to create epic narratives that examine how political and cultural power is established and might be undone.
Jumana Manna’s first major museum exhibition in the US charts the artist’s multidisciplinary practice, which explores the paradoxical effects of preservation practices in agriculture, science, and the law. Marking the New York premiere of Manna’s newest film, Foragers (2022), the exhibition brings together nearly 20 works including two recent films and a series of new and existing sculptures.
Through her dynamic and modular paintings, Frieda Toranzo Jaeger proposes a futurity of queer freedom, connection to nature, and the creation of new spaces of joy and pleasure. Marking Toranzo Jaeger’s first major solo museum exhibition in the United States, Autonomous Drive brings together over a dozen recent works including three new commissions.
Lower Eastside Girls Club in Homeroom is the culmination of over two years of collaboration between jackie sumell, the Lower Eastside Girls Club, and MoMA PS1. This presentation is part of Growing Abolition, a multipart project investigating connections between ecology and prison abolition.
MoMA PS1 presents a newly commissioned work made collaboratively by siblings Chuquimamani-Condori (Elysia Crampton Chuquimia, b. 1985, Inland Empire, CA) and Joshua Chuquimia Crampton (b. 1983, San Diego) in PS1’s double-height ground-floor gallery.
Through cinema and installation, Onyeka Igwe’s (b. 1986, London) multidisciplinary practice examines little-known historic events by collecting and combining documentary sources including government records, official reports, material artifacts, and personal memory, as well as gesture, voice, dance, and song.
Join us for a symposium on Indigenous and migrant justice in conjunction with Chuquimamani-Condori and Joshua Chuquimia Crampton’s exhibition, Q'iwanakaxa/Q'iwsanakaxa Utxiwa (Francisco Tancara & Rosa Quiñones confronted by the subprefecto, chief of police, corregidor, & archbishop, Reid Shepard, & Adventist missionaries).
This program is organized in conjunction with the solo exhibition A Repertoire of Protest (No Dance, No Palaver). London-based artist and filmmaker Onyeka Igwe joins us at MoMA for a Modern Mondays evening featuring a selection of single-channel and expanded film works. Her research-based practice occupies a diasporic perspective that offers a critique of British imperialism and its aftermath, neoliberal capitalism.
