After years working with organic materials and forensic evidence from Mexico City's morgue, Teresa Margolles shifted in the early 2000s to materials tied to criminal acts in public space. Her work began to examine violence through the residue left in the streets, what she frames as the "periphery of the body."

These two pieces of jewelry are made with glass shards recovered from score-settling incidents of organized crime in Culiacán, Sinaloa. A local jeweler recreated designs from his repertoire, setting the glass in place of precious stones.

See them in "Teresa Margolles: En el lugar de los hechos (At the Scene)," on view through Feb 8.

Hard Art opens November 5 at MoMA PS1.

This major exhibition brings together more than 40 artists to examine the legacy of abstract painting by Black artists in the US, from 1969 to now, across sculpture, video, sound, and painting.

Expect to see historical works by Frank Bowling, Cynthia Hawkins, Peter Bradley, Howardena Pindell, David Hammons, Barbara Chase Riboud, and Martin Puryear, alongside works by Glenn Ligon, Julie Mehretu, Jennie C. Jones, and Mark Bradford. Plus, check out new works by Carolyn Lazard, Rindon Johnson, SoiL Thornton, and Torkwase Dyson.

This intergenerational show builds on PS1's seminal 1980 exhibition "Afro-American Abstraction," continuing to probe abstraction’s relationship to identity and Blackness.

Organized by Connie Butler, The Agnes Gund Director, with Sheldon Gooch, Curatorial Associate. Exhibition research and support is provided by June Kitahara, Research Assistant.

Where does the ☮️ come from?

In 1958, English artist Gerald Holtom designed the peace sign using intersecting semaphore letters—a communication system historically used by the military—N (for Nuclear) and D (for Disarmament). The official logo for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, the now-ubiquitous peace sign has inspired countless variations of anti-nuclear designs, from posters to T-shirts and buttons. Artists Against the Bomb is a direct extension and amplification of this design-driven call to action.

Swing by MoMA PS1 to see Artists Against the Bomb in Homeroom, on view through Feb 8.

Today is the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons. An estimated 12,187 nuclear weapons remain in the world, and the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) warns that the risk of deployed nuclear weapons is higher now than during the Cold War.

On view now in Homeroom, Artists Against the Bomb gathers more than 80 calls to action, including posters, film, photography, literature, music, sculpture, and rare ephemera, all in support of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. The show is rooted in an urgent belief that meaningful change comes through collective action and public refusal.

"Teresa Margolles: En el lugar de los hechos (At the Scene)" is now on view.

The exhibition brings together the artist's bold minimalist forms that examine transnational violence across the US and Mexico. Margolles’s practice traces crimes, disappearances, and displacements, using materials recovered from the scene including demolished architecture, tiles made with mud from the Rio Grande riverbed, and jewelry inlaid with glass from car-to-car crossfire.

Through her work, she seeks to restore dignity to those who have died, been displaced, or abandoned, confronting the pain and loss left behind by violence.

In conjunction with this exhibition at MoMA PS1, a major installation by Margolles will be presented in a focused collection gallery at beginning September 25.
