After the Fire is a participatory mural project by artists Nanibah Chacon, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh, and Layqa Nuna Yawar.

This spring, MoMA PS1 presents a retrospective of artist, activist, and musician Alanis Obomsawin (Abenaki, b. 1932), one of Canada’s most renowned filmmakers. The exhibition spans six decades of her multidisciplinary practice, bringing together a selection of films, sculptures, and sound, as well as rarely seen ephemera that sheds light on their production.

In the video Reserved (2006), Bani Abidi (Pakistani, b.1971) depicts a city at a standstill, its residents awaiting the arrival of an unspecified dignitary. Schoolchildren line a roadside with flags in hand; cars idle behind traffic barricades; an empty auditorium slowly fills; tense bureaucrats prepare for imminent political pageantry. Meanwhile, a motorcade winds through the streets.

This year’s MoMA PS1 Gala After Party is conceived by artist DonChristian Jones, and celebrates MoMA PS1 with performances by Demi and The Band, and vinyl sets by Ms. Carrie Stacks and Persona La Ave.
