From the very outset of her career in the 1950s, Niki de Saint Phalle (American and French, 1930–2002) defied artistic conventions, creating works that were overtly feminist, performative, collaborative, and monumental. Her first major US exhibition, Niki de Saint Phalle: Structures for Life features over 200 works that highlight Saint Phalle’s interdisciplinary approach and engagement with pressing social issues. Innovation was key to Saint Phalle’s process: from beginning to end, she envisioned new ways of inhabiting the world.

For Pride Month, PS1 collaborates with Black Trans Liberation and founder Qween Jean to transform Homeroom into a sacred space of affirmations and offerings centering Black, trans, two-spirit, and gender non-conforming people.

For those who identify as allies, this space asks us to learn about, protect, and celebrate Black trans legacies and lives.
